What is Mulberry?
Mulberry is an art gallery in Wichita, Kansas with a strong focus on Black artists, artists of color, and artists historically underrepresented in regional venues. Mulberry aims to serve as a site for innovative creative exploration that will change that narrative and amplify these voices.

Our Mission
To provide consistent visibility to Black, Brown, and other underrepresented artists who are often offered few opportunities to show their work and grow their careers. This gallery is meant to serve as a space where artists of color can show their work in a community where their art is wholly appreciated.

Our Goal
Mulberry foster creative and professional growth in emerging talent and challenge artists to push their work beyond the canvas or pedestal. Mulberry provides immersive art exhibitions, installations and events that offer a unique experience for artists and patrons.
We investigate existing cultural norms in thematic art shows that invite artists to inspire critical discourse in response to provocative concepts while engaging and educating our audience.

Mulberry is located in the heart of Wichita’s African American community. This area is rapidly evolving with a diverse influx of new business and cultural opportunities. We deliberately chose this site for its easy accessibility to the artists with whom we hope to connect and the audience most eager to encounter their work.
