Chautauqua: Cultivating Community 🍁
October 3+4, 2026

Mark your calendars for Chautuauqua: Cultivating Community, a weekend of interactive workshops, hands-on craft sessions, and inspiring educational lectures right here in Bartlett Arboretum. Rooted in the themes of mutual learning and fostering an enduring spirit of community, the two-day event will transform the arboretum into an open-air classroom and cultural forum.

The Chautauqua movement, which originated in the late 1800s as an assembly for education, art, and community enlightenment, has expanded over the last century to locations stretching from New York to Colorado. By launching our inaugural assembly this year, Bartlett Arboretum joins the Chautauqua Trail, providing a modern sanctuary for folks to unplug, share knowledge, and connect deeply with their neighbors.

We invite you to join us in celebrating community. Peruse the schedule, purchase tickets, read more about our presenters and workshops on our website through our LinkTree: linktr.ee/BartlettArb . 🔗 🌲

Today is the day we can't wait to see you!
✂️🧷🔨🪛
Yes you can bring things to repair (bikes, jewelry, electronics, textiles, etc.) but honestly, spending some quality community/nature/animal time without the pressure to always buy & spend is the ultimate goal (we support Third Spaces & Places). Humans could use some repairing as well sometimes.🌳🙏🐶

FRI. 8/28/26
Performance begins 6PM

Everyone is welcome, for all genders.

And upcycling!🪡🧵
Conservation + Conversation =
Performance Art
♻️
Join Assistant Professor of Dance Megan Bascom and local slow-fashion advocate, Owner of TISSU Sewing Studio, Nina Winter, for an evening of dance, conversation, and sustainable community action on Friday, August 28 at 6:00 p.m. in Dance Studio 144B at the WSU Heskett Center. This free event explores alternatives to fast fashion through performance, discussion, and sharing. Attendees are encouraged to bring gently used clothing items to swap, exchange, or reimagine through upcycling. The evening begins with a performance of Fabricated Need – a dance examining the fast-fashion industry and its impacts, followed by a community discussion and clothing swap. By combining artistic expression, dialogue, and sustainable action, the event encourages participants to consider their relationship to clothing while engaging in a practical alternative to disposal and excess. This project is made possible by support from the Wichita State University Award for Research/Creative Projects in Summer 2026.

River designing a few Japanese-inspired outfits.🤩 An avant garde outfit for Tokyo held together with safety pins as an accessory & a traditional Kimono top for Kyoto (we love visualizing & writing down our dreams in detail😍). Come to think of it, River's past projects throughout the years were always inspired by Japan!😮

"EUROPE"

This week we traveled around the world & designed/sewed an outfit inspired by our dream destinations. We learned fancy words such as Haute Couture, Avant Garde, Tissu & also practiced our cursive. Most importantly, acknowledging & giving credit to cultures, customs, textiles & traditions that inspired our work. The best part! Using our IMAGINATION to visualize travel & fashion dreams coming to life!✨️
