Visitors of the Meadow can soon enjoy new seating designed and fabricated in collaboration with the students of the K-State Department of Architecture Planning and Design. The students are currently in the making mode, and the museum is excited about this collaboration. The new seating will be unveiled with a grand celebration in Spring 2024. Stay tuned for more details!
Here is a peek at the fabrication process:

The Meadow is a landscape of prairie plants native to the Flint Hills located just north of the Beach Museum of Art. Milkweeds and other species here provide food and habitat for Monarch butterflies and other pollinators. Enjoy this prairie garden right on the K-State campus and open for all.
The Meadow helps build meaningful connections among art, science, and enjoyment of the natural world. It is a project of the Beach Museum of Art’s Prairie Studies Initiative, in collaboration with K-State staff, faculty, students, and members of the surrounding community.
