TEENS THROUGH TIME

The Wichita-Sedgwick County Historical Museum has assembled a group of high school students who are gaining museum literacy while working together to plan their own event, a “Teen Night” held at the Museum.
This new program is an exciting addition to our customary educational programming. The High School students in this program will learn about the Museum and then design, organize, and host a special event. Group members will also go on to participate behind the scenes in special projects, programs, and other events.
The group meets once a month starting in October, with the event in April.

At Home with History

The Museum has been housed in Wichita’s original City Hall for the last four decades. This landmark building was constructed in 1890 and is considered an exhibit in itself. A wide variety of the Museum’s exhibits showcase life in Wichita over the centuries, from the Wichita Indian tribe—whose name the town adopted— to the cowboys who drove their cattle here, to the dawn of aviation and the City’s role as the Air Capital of the World.
