THE NOTO ARTS CENTER IS OPEN Wed-Thur 11-5, Fri 11-6, Sat 11-3. Get ready to pack your bags for a whimsical adventure at Camp To-Sha-Ka, where art meets education in the quirkiest way possible! This vibrant exhibit is your passport to a world where local native stereotypes are playfully unpacked, and the hidden stories behind names and images come to life. As a partner exhibit to the Smithsonian National Museum of the American Indian’s “Americans,” Camp To-Sha-Ka invites you to explore the colorful tapestry of our shared history, all while having a blast! Expect interactive displays, eye-opening art, and a sprinkle of humor that will have you questioning what you thought you knew about native culture. Join us for an unforgettable journey that promises to enlighten, entertain, and inspire—because at Camp To-Sha-Ka, the only thing more fun than learning is doing it with a smile!
In partnership with Humanities Kansas and the Americans statewide initiative.
