“Home to a nationally renowned collection of American art”
The mission of the Wichita Art Museum is to be a viable and energetic home for creative dialogue and community interaction with superb American art. Nestled in the heart of the Museums on the River district just five minutes from downtown in the Riverside neighborhood, the Wichita Art Museum is home to a nationally renowned collection of American art. As the largest art museum in the state of Kansas, WAM houses one of the country’s premier collections with 7,000 works in our permanent collection, including masterpieces by Mary Cassatt and Edward Hopper.
