See what else we have to offerThe Kansas African American Museum and Harvester Arts are proud to announce Sankofa: Tell the Story, a community project including a large temporary mural at TKAAM's new location, 201 N Main, and a museum exhibition in TKAAM's current space at 601 N Water St. This community focused project is designed to bridge the past, present, and the future of the The Kansas African American Museum in Wichita, KS.
TKAAM and Harvester Arts invites visitors to the mural and exhibition to engage with in Sankofa by viewing the mural and images of the past included in the exhibition and their personal story Sankofa is an expression of the Twi language of Ghana who literal translation means, "to go back and get it". The phrase evokes the past as a teaching tool: in order to find our way forward, we must look to our past to inform the future.
Following the theme of storytelling in 2024, TKAAM showcases its new acquisitions in “Collecting Stories”, an exhibit that explores the importance of providing context to artifacts, images, and documents, reflecting on history’s impact on the past, present, and future.
The Ultimate Theater Experience

“Somewhere In America” is the first major museum exhibition by contemporary artist Robert Peterson. Through his vibrant and joyful portraits, Peterson captures the beauty and diversity of African American life, celebrating the “Black experience as [he] knows it.” This exhibition features over 20 new works and key pieces from Peterson’s existing collection, many painted on a monumental scale. Each painting is a loving depiction of individuals, couples, and families, celebrating everyday moments and commemorating Peterson’s community—from small-town Oklahoma to his wider circle of friends and family across the country.
Discover the deeply personal yet universally relatable stories of family, community, and legacy that are woven throughout Peterson’s work. Don’t miss this opportunity to experience the art of a self-taught artist who has quickly risen to prominence, with his works now held in major museums like the Philbrook Museum of Art, Weisman Art Museum, and Museum of Fine Arts St. Petersburg.
