Kansas Interpretive Traveling Exhibit Service

Searching for new and unique ways to enhance your lobby, classroom, festival, or special program?

The Kansas Interpretive Traveling Exhibits Service - KITES - may be just what you're looking for!

Schools, museums, libraries, arts councils, retirement homes, and others can benefit from KITES. Sponsored by the Kansas Historical Society, KITES offers attractive exhibits at minimal cost. (Please note that these exhibits can be booked for Kansas sites ONLY.)

Whether you have spacious walls or very little floor space, KITES can work for you!

Booking a KITES exhibit is easy. Exhibits are usually booked for four-weeks, including shipping time. Two weeks advanced registration is required. To make a reservation, contact the KITES Program Scheduler at 785-272-8681, ext. 431, or click here to schedule online. Be sure to review the booking information and borrower's responsibilities before you reserve an exhibit.

Exhibit Format includes two different mounting system, free-standing and wall-hung. Please check the format listed for each exhibit to determine the type and be certain you can accommodate that type before you book the exhibit.

Cost is something we strive to keep to a minimum with the KITES program. As a borrower you will pay a $35 handling fee per exhibit. Each borrower is also responsible for transport of the exhibit from Topeka to your site and back. You may choose to pick up and return the exhibit to Topeka with no shipping cost. Alternately you may have the exhibit shipped to you and back through Price Truck Line. We arrange for shipping to you and will give you all necessary information for return shipping.
