House of Morrow and Walnut Elementary School fifth graders dove into a creative writing literacy program earlier this year. The culmination of the program is a collection of the students’ writings in an anthology published by local independent press, Meadowlark Books.

Funding this project was made possible by the United Way United for Racial Equity Grant, Emporia Community Foundation, House of Morrow, and Meadowlark Press.

AEC MURAL PROJECT 

The AEC Mural & Patio Project, a collaboration between House of Morrow and Flint Hills Technical College, aims to create a vibrant, welcoming space for adult learners. 

It features flowerbeds, a pergola, and a public mural, enhancing the center's atmosphere. Led by Vicki Schweinler, the project combines AEC funding and House of Morrow's contributions to inspire and transform the learning environment.

LIVE LOCAL MUSIC

Thanks to the support of generous community partners who share their platforms, we're able to spotlight local artists and storytellers. These collaborations help us bring people together through live music and the power of shared creative expression.

ART IN THE GARDEN

House of Morrow is proud to partner with Good Way Gardens for their Good Way Sunday Concert Series, held on the first Sunday of each month from April through October.

During each event, House of Morrow showcases the work of local artists—offering a vibrant platform for homegrown talent to share their creativity, engage with the community, and celebrate the power of art in a shared space.
