This past Saturday was a colorful one at Mark Arts as families joined us for Art Together: Color, Culture, and Arte Latino, hosted in partnership with Empower North End.

Dancers from Raices De Mi Tierra Ballet Folklorico filled the morning with music, movement and beautiful traditional costumes, followed by a special story time with Adriana Holguin, author of “Grandpa’s Cartoncito: El Cartoncito de Mi Abuelo.”

Then it was time to create! Families made their own colorful works inspired by Mexican tin art and the yarn paintings of Wixárika artists.

Thank you to our performers, storyteller and everyone who joined us for a morning celebrating art and culture together!

Art Together takes place on the second Saturday of every month from 10 a.m.–noon. Join us next month for another free morning of art, activities and family fun.

We transform the Gladys & Karl T. Wiedemann Gallery only a few times each year, which makes opening a new exhibition especially exciting.

So much goes into each changeover — from artists across the country preparing and sending their work to Wichita, to our exhibitions team considering every detail of how the show comes together: where each piece belongs, which works hang alongside one another, how they interact with the colors of the gallery walls and how the exhibition flows through the space.

Friday night, all that work came together as we welcomed guests for the opening of the 2026 National Watercolor Exhibition.

Thank you to everyone who joined us! The exhibition is now on view through December 12.

“Broken Beauty” brings together portraits and imagery of people Dontae has created over the past year, primarily in oil with select digital pieces. His striking use of color, texture and expression makes this exhibition well worth a visit.
