COMMUNITY ART BOX AT ART HOUSE 310
We have worked to plan, construct, install and provide the initial stock for a community art supply box!
WHAT IS THE COMMUNITY ART BOX?
This outdoor community art box will be located at Art House 310 and will be free and open to the community! Our close to downtown gallery provides a central location for those needing supplies. Using a “take what you need, leave what you can” model, we hope this community art box will be utilized by anyone of all ages and all skill levels in Wichita!
WHERE IS THE COMMUNITY ART BOX?
The community art box is located at Art House 310, which is at 310 S. Laura, Wichita, KS 67211. We are two blocks SE of Douglas and Washington in downtown Wichita.
HOW CAN I HELP?
