ReThink Topeka

Ready to start creating? Have something great that Topeka hasn’t seen? ReThink Topeka is gearing up for the BIG event- The ReThink Topeka Exhibition and Art Walk. The event is April 9th and the submission deadline is Feb 1st. For details visit the Call for Art page at this site.

Come to North Topeka’s downtown at 11 a.m. Saturday Oct. 23 to participate in this art scavenger hunt. We’ll be starting at the cul de sac at the intersection of Gordon and N. Kansas Avenue.

This family friendly event will feature art on walls, doors, and other structures along Kansas Ave. A more difficult hunt will include art hidden along the alleyways behind Kansas Ave. Each piece of art will contain a number and a word that will help you to complete haikus about the neighborhood. Buttons and NOTO prizes will be awarded on a first come basis.

Participation costs $1.

Hey. Think about taking this survey!
