Ulrich Memories

WE WANT YOUR ULRICH MEMORIES!

 On December 7, 2024, the Edwin A. Ulrich Museum of Art will officially turn 50 years old! In its half a century, the Museum has grown into an invaluable asset to Wichita State University and Wichita communities, bringing cutting-edge contemporary art to our region and amassing a world-class collection of modern and contemporary art.

In anticipation of this anniversary, we want to hear from you! As past and present Ulrich visitors, supporters, and staff, you understand what makes the Ulrich special. Using the form below, please share with us any memory or memories that are most emblematic of your experience with the Ulrich. Photographs are also welcome! Were you transfixed by an encounter with a single work? Changed by a visit to an exhibition? Enlightened or challenged by a talk? Delighted by a performance or event? Comforted by daily encounters with pieces from the Outdoor Sculpture Collection? Had a great conversation within our walls? Your experiences will illuminate what is most meaningful about the Museum and its work and what we might focus on in the Museum’s future.

The contributions we collect will remain permanently as an archive available on this webpage and will be a great resource to the Ulrich’s current stewards. We are grateful for all memories shared and are excited to piece together in a new way a picture of the community that the Ulrich has been serving and creating for 50 years.
