Main TheaterThe Women's Adventure Film Tour (WAFT) returns to celebrate extraordinary women and their adventures! Get ready for an adrenaline-fueled showcase of courage and triumph that will ignite your spirit.
Every year, WAFT’s unique films are carefully chosen to show women achieving their personally adventurous goals. This year’s program highlights the resilience and creativity of individuals navigating the challenges of both the outer world and their own inner landscapes. It’s a program that brings together incredible stories of courage, adventure, and self-discovery. These films represent the spirit of perseverance and the power of women in the outdoors to inspire, entertain, and spark important conversations.
This year’s WAFT lineup includes a diverse range of films that explore the physical, emotional, and personal journeys of athletes and adventurers.
- “Sliding” takes audiences into the high-speed world of skeleton sledding, capturing the intense precision and adrenaline of the sport.
- “Cycling the World” follows one woman’s multi-year journey across five continents, 28 countries, and 29,000 kilometers, offering a powerful reflection on both the outer adventure and inner transformation.
- “It Will Be Different for You” is a portrait of Olympian Lea Davison, who reflects on her lifelong relationship with mountain biking and the personal trials and triumphs that have shaped her path.
- In “Above Sinai” Egyptian kiteboarder Sarah Sadek defies cultural expectations and empowers her community, challenging norms while embracing her love of the sport.
- “Drawn In” tells the story of Jessa Gilbert, a backcountry guide and visual artist, whose creative process intertwines the exploration of glaciated terrain with the art of painting, revealing the shared spirit of adventure and creativity in both pursuits.

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.
