Wichita, Kan. – Friends University’s Fine Arts faculty members will present a fanfare of performances to showcase their artwork Thursday, Sept. 9, at 7:30 p.m. in Sebits Auditorium in Riney Fine Arts Center.
The exhibit and show are an opportunity for the community to experience the creative and diverse faculty members in Friends University’s Division of Fine Arts. Talented professors will share music, dance and visual arts as they inspire students and the public alike.

And we look forward introducing them to you at the Faculty Fanfare.”
