10 a.m Reception | 10:30 a.m. Program
Riverfront Stadium opened this summer to rave reviews, and a huge welcome to Wichita’s new Double-A baseball team, the Wind Surge. Fans of baseball, excited to return to the game and tour the new stadium, were also invited to "look everywhere" and to explore all of the surrounding spaces within and outside of the stadium’s footprint to discover a myriad of artworks installed throughout the stadium thanks to a 2% public project fund allocated for public art. Elizabeth Stevenson, director of Fisch Haus in the Commerce Street Art District and an art and architectural consultant in Wichita and Montreal, served as the stadium’s art consultant, and will be our guide for this offsite event.
