If you’ve never taken a class from the City of Wichita, check out how they have impacted previous participants:

“CityArts helped me go from no art experience to having exhibitions and selling art through galleries. I never imagined that I would also make so many friendships. The staff, instructors and variety of classes are fantastic.”
– Curtis Haynes
“The Library’s programming is worth your time. The programs are well thought out and designed to help people grow and learn together. The Library staff is always so very helpful and kind.”
– Mark Shobe

Just to warn you, once you’ve taken a class, you’ll want to keep coming back!

User-Friendly Registration System:

The Wichita Park & Recreation app is free to download. Existing customers who already have an account will use the same login credentials when logging into the mobile app. That will prevent our patrons from logging in each time they register for a class. Or you can enroll online for Evolve.

Find Hard Copies of Evolve:

If you prefer to explore the activities in a hard copy, you’ll find them at City of Wichita locations such as Wichita Public Library branches, CityArts and Recreation Centers. You can also fill out an online form to Subscribe to Evolve.

Sessions: 

Moving forward, here’s what you can expect. We’ll share new editions of Evolve with you every spring, summer, fall, and winter!

We encourage you to follow the Wichita Public Library, CityArts, and Wichita Park & Recreation on Facebook for the latest updates. You’ll also find CityArts and the Wichita Public Library on Twitter.

Check out Evolve’s Summer edition and prepare for a fantastic session! We can’t wait to hear about everything you try and all that you accomplish!
