First Friday Exhibit Opening - Why History Museums Collect Art

05:00 PM, April 3, 2026 | Wichita-Sedgwick Co. Historical Museum

Join us for Wichita-Sedgwick County Historical Museum’s First Friday exhibit opening of Why History Museums Collect Art.

This exhibition is part of the ongoing Lois Kay Walls visual art exhibition series produced by the Wichita-Sedgwick County Historical Museum.

Art is not only for Art Museums. If a picture is worth a thousand words, it stands to reason that art can tell us a lot about the times and place where it was produced. Local history museums exist to explore time and place.

Featuring works from C.A. Seward, John Noble, Edmund Davison, Birger Sandzen, Bruce McGrew, and more!

This special exhibit is one of dozens on view throughout the Museum, located in Wichita’s original City Hall building, and open to the public during these extended hours.
