About the Writers’ Faire
Join us for the 2026 Joplin Writers’ Faire on Saturday, October 3rd, 10:00am-1:00pm. Held annually, the Joplin Writers’ Faire connects all sorts of writers to their existing and potentially new audiences while encouraging community support of local and regional writers. This year the Joplin Writers’ Faire is celebrating its 10th anniversary!
