As an annual tradition in Wichita, this car show represents a locally-support event for car lovers of all ages and is one of the longest-running indoor car shows in the country. This year, the event celebrates 61 years. It was started in 1957 by Darryl Starbird and purchased by a non-profit agency, Cars for Charities Co. in 2011. Now, 12 local car guys who share a passion for charities and cars come together to raise money each year. All proceeds go to the ARC of Sedgwick County, a non-profit dedicated to improving the lives of individuals with disabilities, and Starkey, a non-profit that serves people with intellectual and developmental disabilities.

Kansas Land
Farm Photography by Larry Schwarm
The New Farmers Project by Photographer Bryon Darby, Desinger Tim Hossler, and Sociologist Paul Stock.
September 29, 2018–March 10, 2019
What does the Kansas farm look like in 2018? What is life like for the fifth-generation farmer, working land she has inherited from her parents? What is life like for the first-generation, sustainable farmer? How has the land itself changed, as water resources diminish but technological innovations become more available? Kansas Land features the recent work of two Kansas photographers, Bryon Darby and Larry Schwarm, in order to chronicle the life of farmers and the land they work in light of the social, economic, and environmental challenges of 2018. Both Schwarm and Darby’s photographs come from larger collaborative projects sponsored by different departments at the University of Kansas. These projects aimed at connecting the arts, environmental sciences, and sociology with the everyday lives of Kansans. WAM is eager to further the aims of these projects by exhibiting the photographs of Darby and Schwarm together.
