WAM Nights at the Wichita Art Musuem

Sharing is caring!

Looking for an easy, affordable way to kick off your Weekend in Wichita? WAM Nights might be your new Friday tradition. The Wichita Art Museum is open late on Fridays until 9 pm, giving you after-hours access to the galleries and a relaxed way to explore art at your own pace.

One of the best parts? General admission to WAM Nights and the permanent collection galleries is completely free. That makes this one of the best budget-friendly Date Nights, girls’ nights, or solo reset evenings in town.

WAM Nights aren’t just about walking through the galleries. Many Fridays feature special programs with artists, musicians, and performers, so every visit can feel a little different. It’s a chance to experience the museum in a fresh, more casual, and more social way, perfect for easing into the weekend.

You can also pop into the Museum Store while you’re there. It’s a great spot to browse unique gifts, art-inspired finds, and locally made items. Even if you’re just window shopping, it adds to the fun of the evening.

If you’re looking for something to do on a Friday night that feels special but doesn’t cost a thing, WAM Nights are a smart pick. Free admission, inspiring art, and extended hours? That’s a Wichita win.

Pro Tip: Inside the museum is PLAY, which is a FREE space for kids to play and make art. We often go, and it’s one of my daughter’s favorite Indoor Activities in Wichita.
