A New Home for Kansas African American History

The Kansas African American Museum is developing a new Museum and Cultural Center in downtown Wichita. This expanded facility will preserve history, support education, and create meaningful connections for visitors from across Kansas and beyond.

Located at 201 North Main Street, the renovated building will allow TKAAM to protect its growing collection, expand programming, and welcome more than 45,000 visitors each year. This project represents a long-term investment in cultural preservation, education, and access.
