NEWS

Amazon Prime Series

Wichita has its place in pop culture.

From music (I’m going to Wichita) to movies or shows (Ted Lasso), Wichita has had its moments.

The newest highlight for Wichita is the Amazon Prime Series “The College Tour” will be filming on WSU Campus today (9/9) through 9/17 where they highlight all aspects of live on college campuses.

This is the first time a Kansas college has been on the series.

TOGETHER WITH AUTUMN & ART

Ever heard of Autumn & Art?

It combines two of our favorite things and is happening this weekend (9/13 - 9/15). it is the premier al fresco art show showcasing artists from across the US.
