This exhibit includes 26 contemporary artworks in the distinctive style of the 1930s and 40s WPA Federal Art Project National Park travel posters. We’re sure this exhibit will inspire you to buckle up for a retro-inspired road trip to experience and explore the beauty of Kansas parks and green spaces for yourself!
