Fostering a community of musicians that play clarinet ranging from students of all ages, hobbyists, professionals, and lovers of music, Clarinet Day is celebrated yearly on 16 November.
This event highlights the versatile instrument that was used through the Classical Period to the present day. The clarinet is the featured instrument on what is regarded as Mozart’s greatest work and present at the inception of the American musical art form; jazz. The clarinet and iterations of the instrument are present in many cultures all across the world and the styles of music they play are just as diverse.

Originally opening in 1966 as a three-room library within the Airport Annex building, the Clark County Library moved in 1967 to a storefront. In 1971, the library moved again to its current location using deeded land from the County and with money awarded by the Max C. Fleishman Foundation. The building went on to have two remodels: one completed in 1986, and the second completed in 1994, which resulted in the three-story, 120,000-square-foot building it is today. This redesign notably included a 399-seat theater and an 80-seat black box theater/dance studio. The Library District also added the Best Buy Teen Tech Center, which provides a place for teens to explore and master new technologies and digital skills.
