Upon my arrival in Wichita, having time to myself and a beautiful early evening at hand, I took to the streets exploring the historic buildings along Douglas Avenue and into Old Town Wichita.
This post is VERY photo-laden and I hope you will pour yourself a cuppa and take the time to enjoy each one! It’s a virtual Wichita Walking Tour through my eyes and the lens of my camera.
It only took a block before I noticed that there are amazing sculptures EVERYWHERE you turn.
What looks like normal passers by at first glance, turns out to be beautiful bronze statues, tucked in here and there on sidewalks, on benches, creating street scenes of Wichita past.
I was mesmerized! I wanted to find them all!
From downtownwichita.org:
As one of the first cities in the United States to commission public art under a National Endowment for the Arts program, Wichita has literally taken art to the streets.
In 1991 the City of Wichita took a visionary approach by supporting the inclusion of public art in capital improvement projects. These actions along with generous donations from private citizens, business and community leaders have transformed Downtown Wichita into an area full of visual interest and energy.
