Youth GALLERY

Child Start: Art from the Start
Aug. 5 - Sept. 6

The Youth Gallery celebrates the creativity and imagination of young artists throughout the greater Wichita area. This dedicated exhibition space is specifically designed to showcase artwork created by students 18 years old and younger. By highlighting the artistic achievements of children and teens, the Youth Gallery nurtures the next generation of creatives and reinforces the value of arts education in our community.
 
Art from the Start is a vibrant celebration of creativity straight from the hearts and imaginations of Child Start children. This exhibit showcases original artwork created by our youngest artists, each piece a window into how they see, dream, and explore the world around them. From whimsical creatures to colorful self-portraits and joyful scenes from everyday life, these works reflect the boundless curiosity and expressive freedom that early childhood inspires. Join us in honoring their voices, their visions, and the powerful role creativity plays in early learning and development.
