Wichita Forever Festival @ Harvester Arts

12-9:30pm / Harvester Arts / Wichita, KS

I’ll be at Harvester Arts on August 22 making art live during the Wichita Forever Festival!

I’ll be bringing my community mural for everyone to help work on, while also constructing pieces on site for Surface/Self, my current installation project funded by The Arts Council.

This project has been developing through painting, installation, community participation, and a lot of experimenting, so I’m excited to bring some of that process out of the studio and let people see it happening in real time.

I’ll also have a selection of T shirts, hats, stickers, and art prints available throughout the day.

Wichita Forever Festival is a free, all ages event celebrating our local creative community, and it should be a really fun day of art, making, and connecting with people around Wichita.

Come by, add something to the mural, see what I’m building, grab some art or merch, and support Wichita’s local art community.

A Starry Sweet A’fair For the Sweet Emergency Fund

5:30pm - Dusk / Dr. Sweet's home - Shuttle Services from Wichita State / Wichita, KS

MC: Michael K. Davenport
Benefiting the Sweet Emergency Fund

I’m excited and incredibly honored to be emceeing A Starry Sweet A’fair, the annual fundraiser benefiting the Sweet Emergency Fund and its work supporting people living with HIV/AIDS.

Founded by Dr. Donna Sweet, the Sweet Emergency Fund provides a vital safety net for HIV/AIDS patients, helping with medical care and other expenses associated with living with HIV/AIDS.

I’ll be your MC for the evening as we celebrate the people, partnerships, generosity, and community that make this work possible.

As a queer artist and someone who believes deeply in the power of community, connection, and showing up for one another, getting to be part of an event like this means a lot to me.

Expect a night of art, connection, celebration, fundraising, and a little starry magic. I’m looking forward to being on stage and helping celebrate such an important organization and the people who make its work possible.

Graphic Design

Design with the same pulse as the artwork.

My graphic design work brings the same instincts as my studio practice: bold color, clear hierarchy, layered storytelling, and a strong sense of audience. I build visual systems for artists, small businesses, community events, exhibitions, and organizations that need design to feel expressive without losing structure.

From brand identity and print pieces to event graphics, digital campaigns, and WordPress sites, I create design that helps people understand the work, feel the energy behind it, and know exactly where to go next.
