I look forward to the Mark Arts Six by Six art sale in Wichita every year. I have a passion for original art but a limited budget, and this event allows me to collect unique pieces at an affordable price. Over the years, I’ve been able to purchase works from some of my favorite local artists—pieces I wouldn’t have been able to afford otherwise.
The Six by Six fundraiser, instructors, students, and community artists are invited to participate in support of Mark Arts’ scholarship fund. Each participant will receive a 6 x 6-inch canvas generously provided by the Soroptimists of Wichita. Artists can use any media to create a one-of-a-kind piece, which will be featured in a special Gift Shop display at Mark Arts. Best of all, 100% of the proceeds will go toward the School of Creativity Scholarship Fund, helping make art education more accessible.
During the Six by Six sale, Mark Arts typically hosts its annual Art Market & Open House, a free event showcasing local and regional artists, designers, and makers. Visitors can shop for unique, one-of-a-kind pieces, including photographic prints, jewelry, ceramics, pottery, paintings, fiber arts, abstract works, and more.
Pro Tip: Marks Arts has a FREE monthly program for kids called Art Together, which includes special events and activities in the gallery.
