A view of the Kansas Triennial 25/26 exhibition

Rooted in the Beach Museum’s deep commitment to the region, this new signature exhibition—happening every three years—showcases the diverse and dynamic voices of artists who call Kansas home. The exhibition series invites us to reflect on Kansas’ spirit of growth and transformation, where the energy of place meets a culture of forward-thinking expression. The 2025 inaugural installation features works by Mona Cliff, Mark Cowardin, Poppy DeltaDawn, and Ann Resnick.
