The Cornell Complex
Built to be a home for the arts in Joplin to educate, enlighten, and entertain, the Cornell Complex is quickly becoming an area landmark.
In addition to Spiva, the complex is home to our performing arts counterpart, Connect2Culture.
Connect2Culture
Spiva is proud to be partners and neighbors in the Cornell Complex with Connect2Culture, a community arts agency that promotes and supports arts and cultural activity in the Joplin area.
Connect2Culture serves as a collective voice for 50+ organizations. As a performing arts presenter, the organization offers world-class entertainment at an affordable price, with a vision to improve access and grow the creative community.
Pro Musica
Pro Musica has an office within the Cornell Complex. The organization operates with the goal of providing everyone access to the highest quality classical chamber music.
Its Chamber Series is always free to the public, and each year the group hosts an annual jazz concert, Bach-A-Bye Baby concerts, and outreach performances.
