Mini Used Book Sales at the Wichita Art Museum 2026

The Wichita Art Museum book sale is back and will occur throughout the year. Admission is FREE, but bring some money to purchase books. The Friends of the Wichita Art Museum puts on this event.

The Used Book Sale at the Wichita Art Museum is always exciting, offering fantastic deals on a wide range of books. It’s an excellent opportunity to get more for your money, discover rare or out-of-print books, and even find vintage editions. Plus, you’re supporting the Wichita Art Museum by shopping at the sale. Best of all, you can explore new books while enjoying free admission to the museum!

You can expect to see lightly used books on art, zoology, and everything in between. All the processed benefits of WAM’s events and programs. Keep scrolling for all the dates.

The Art Museum’s permanent collection gallery is now FREE. Visitors will no longer be charged general admission to view the galleries, so this is a great time to get some DEALS on books and visit the galleries.

Bring the kids, explore, and create in the FREE Kids’ Area Called PLAY.
