FREE Historic Wichita Walking Tour

Sharing is caring!

You may or may not know that years ago the Wichita Public Library teamed up with Bike/Walk Wichita to make an app that lets you take self-guided historic walking tours of three different areas in Wichita. If you haven’t made time yet to try it, here’s an opportunity to use the app along with a human guide.  

On May 15, a member of the library staff will take a group on a free guided tour of Wichita’s historic downtown. Advanced registration is required for this library activity, so don’t forget to sign up.

The tour is designed using the library’s app to access archived photos of the historic buildings and other areas downtown, so you will want your cell phone for this tour. 

Call (316) 261-8500 to register for the free walking tour or visit wichitalibrary.org/events to register online. You’ll get an email the day before the walk about where to meet.

Date: May 15, 2021
Time: 10:30 a.m.
Location: Downtown Wichita
Cost: $0 

For more information about the app, visit wichitalibrary.org/historywalk. To register for the free guided walking tour, go to wichitalibrary.org/events.
