Equity Bank Park is home to the Wichita Wind Surge, the Double-A affiliate of the Minnesota Twins. It sits on the west bank of the Arkansas River in downtown Wichita, offering great views of the action on the field and of the city’s core. From fireworks and giveaways to appreciation nights and pet-friendly games, fans will enjoy a variety of special activities throughout the season.
A wildly irreverent send-up of old-school melodrama, Butch Cassidy & the Can't Dance Kid gallops through the Wild West of Wichita, Kansas, where telegraph wires are mysteriously cut, outlaw kindergarteners run amok, and romance blooms between a bumbling schoolteacher and a pistol-packing heroine. As the villainous Lucrecia Lactose schemes to steal Widow Barty’s land for the infamous Kellogg Flyover, masked identities, rapid-fire gags, audience hijinks, and nonstop pop-culture parodies collide in a fast-paced comedy where everyone’s armed with punchlines and nobody is safe from the spotlight.
Then following intermission, enjoy our On the Run Revue!
ORIGAMI IN THE GARDEN, created by Santa Fe artists Jennifer and Kevin Box is a monumental outdoor sculpture exhibition. Box takes origami to another level, transforming paper into museum quality metal sculpture through processes he has pioneered in teamwork with foundries, fabrication shops, and his studio staff. The exhibit features Box's own compositions as well as collaborations with world-renowned origami artists Tim Armijo, Te Jui Fu, Beth Johnson, Michael G. LaFosse, and Robert J. Lang. These remarkable artworks feel at home in the wondrous setting of botanical gardens, since paper originates in plant life and origami is make of paper. A personalized audio tour is available on your cell phone so hat you may call in and listen to the artists speak about the work.
Origami, meaning "folding paper" in Japanese, reflects the essence of creativity: making something out of (basically) nothing. Start with a simple square piece of paper. Apply the art of origami, folding the paper in a creative way to produce an elegant object - a soaring bird, gliding plane, galloping pony, floating boat, or an emerging butterfly.
