We have always been art lovers, and in 2007, we commissioned Kansas artist Jamie Lavin to paint the Kansas Landmarks Collection Series. The series includes sixteen original paintings that encompass historic Kansas landmarks corresponding to many of our locations. In addition to our own collection, we regularly feature works by area artists in some of our branches. You’ll find more info on our current exhibits below.
