The Poinsett Community Club is a historic community center at Main and Poinsett Streets in Trumann, Arkansas. This large American Craftsman/Bungalow structure was designed by Watson B. Boggs and built in 1927, to provide a number of social resources to the employees of the Poinsett Lumber Company. The building was designed to house a gymnasium that doubles as a performing venue, meeting and classroom facilities, and a library. It has for many years been a major social center of the small community, hosting events, theatrical performances, and refugees from the area's periodic floods.[2]
The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1986.[1]
