Gallery Opening and Artists’ Talk: Let Me Take You Down

April 11, 2025 | 6:30pm
Cost: FREE | Open to the Public | No RSVP Required
Location: Howard E. Wooden Auditorium, Wichita Art Museum, 1400 West Museum Blvd

In Let Me Take You Down–the latest exhibition in WAM and Harvester Arts’ Regional Creatives series–Kendra Cremin, Kelsy Gossett, and Jennifer Ray navigate themes of uncertainty, disconnection, intimacy, and the tension between fantasy and lived experience. Through their photographs, they explore personal and cultural narratives of motherhood, queerness, and adoption, challenging societal expectations and the pressure to conform. This joint talk invites the audience to step through portals, pathways, and doors—metaphors for the ways we shape, distort, and ultimately reconcile our own realities.

◆ Bar opens – 6 PM ( cash and credit card accepted)
