The Volunteering Page of Lauren Stauffer

At Spiva Center for the Arts, we believe art has the power to inspire, connect, and strengthen community. Our mission is to create meaningful opportunities for people of all ages and backgrounds to experience, make, and share art.

Your support helps bring that mission to life. Every gift makes a difference—fueling exhibitions, classes, camps, outreach programs, artist opportunities, and creative experiences that welcome and engage our community.

Our vision is for Spiva to be a vibrant community catalyst—uniting culture, education, business, and the arts to inspire creativity, support artists, and connect people through shared artistic experiences. With your generosity, Spiva can continue building a creative, connected future for Joplin and the region we serve.
