Harvester Arts is a nonprofit arts organization in Wichita, KS founded in 2013. Harvester Arts offers thoughtful, high quality visual arts programming that engages the community through critical dialogue and the creation of new work. Through our exhibition programming, discussion forums, and online presence Harvester aims to reinforce Wichita as an art destination on the national level and thereby

enrich our local arts culture. As an independent space, Harvester has the freedom and flexibility to respond to current trends and react to timely events. Local creatives (Satellite Artists) access the Resident artist’s creative process and create new work in response via satellite exhibitions, essays and events.

✨Who Is the Harvester Arts Programming Committee?

Harvester Arts' exhibitions are selected by a Programming Committee made up of practicing local artists working across disciplines and experience levels. Every year, this committee reviews submissions from our annual open call and shapes the exhibition program for the next year.

This committee structure reflects our broader curatorial approach: centering artist-led, public-facing practice, and creating low-barrier, experimental opportunities for artists to test ideas, engage the public, and build sustainable creative lives in Wichita. That approach has allowed us to bring in 5–7 new shows each month in 2026, a pace made possible by thoughtful, community-rooted review rather than a single curatorial gatekeeper.
