  Wichita Supporting the Arts

 

The city of Wichita is blessed with a wide variety of vibrant art organizations, and the Wichita: Supporting the Arts campaign recognizes how vital our thriving arts community is to both our quality of life and our economy -- not only do arts organizations bring arts and culture into our lives, but they also attract consumers to Wichita and the downtown area. For this reason the STA campaign works to encourage the Wichita community to support our local, not-for-profit art organizations in four main ways:

1) Attend (or participate) in art events

2) Promote the arts to friends and visitors

3) Volunteer to help with events or performances

4) Donate to (or advertise with) art organizations

Please take some time to tour each of the wonderful art organizations here in Wichita.  Each of them bring a unique component to the arts and culture of Wichita, and we're proud to have them in our city!
