Nestled in the heart of the Museums on the River district just five minutes from downtown in the Riverside neighborhood, the Wichita Art Museum is home to a nationally renowned collection of American art.

As the largest art museum in the state of Kansas, WAM houses one of the country’s premier collections with 7,000 works in our permanent collection, including masterpieces by Mary Cassatt and Edward Hopper.

The Museum features two dramatic and large-scale works by Seattle glass artist Dale Chihuly. Inspired by the intricate patterns of traditional Persian glass, the Persian Seaform Installation provides a stunning first impression at the Museum’s entrance and hanging in the S. Jim and Darla Farha Great Hall is the Confetti Chandelier.

  The Wichita Art Museum is a fun place to take family and friends to, it is free on Saturdays. They always have new exhibitions and if you are a student or under 17 you get in for free which is awesome. Being an artist myself, I find this is a great place to be creative as well as admire the pieces. There is a cute little gift shops which has tons of unique and fun items. There is also a small cafe as well. All the staff here are very nice & welcoming!

  Very nice art museum. Good kid area. Good exhibits. Nice cafe. Seems like this one doesn't go too far with the graphic art of the City of Austin art museums etc. Nice view of downtown from the museum. Was impressed.
