ARTISTS BEWARE. (This is a condensed version) They asked if I was a local artist instagram. They were interested in my Ai art prints. I happily delivered because I love all genres of art and they seemed local artist friendly. A few days later they asked me to be a "featured artist" (with 9 days to prepare). I Advised them that I would have to order prints for what they were asking, They said GREAT let's do it! I then ordered the prints. 2 days later they told me YOUR "art" is not art. We can't allow your kind here. I said, I understand. You have a right to put what you want in your store, BUT, you don't have the right to request product then say never mind, shame me, and cost me money. I am now out over 200.00 and that's me being generous. In my opinion, it seems unethical, and seemingly premeditated but mostly a big charge to their ego at my expense.

This place is awesome! It's almost like being at a pop-up but inside of a store ?. There are so many items to look at there that it is way too many to list off! So go check it out for yourself and find yourself something awesome at The Workroom!

I love this place. I travel to Wichita for work regularly and this is one of my favorite places to visit. I bought a lot of Christmas presents here this year, it has really unique and local gifts so really recommend.

This is a very cool place we stumbled upon near our air bnb. Supporting local buisness/artists seems to be the sole focus, which is amazing! This is the perfect place to shop if you need to buy a present for someone, so many options. Also, the workroom is connected to another buisness that sells plants and other trinkets. The vibe is amazing.

We were visiting from Florida for one day. I wanted postcards representing the city & stickers for our RV after touring places around the city. One museum store didn't have these so they recommended The Workroom (cool name). It's a large store (with more than 1 room) with all kinds of gift items. I found what I was looking for & checked out with a nice young woman.However, the total for my @7 items seemed too high. I left my glasses in the car so I went out to check the receipt. I returned & told the cashier I was double-charged or overcharged for some items. She stated, no, the items I purchased are charged higher from local artists. My problem with this was the postcards on the rack were clearly marked $1/piece. The stickers on the table were clearly marked $3/piece. But at checkout I'm charged $3/postcard and $4/stickers! I could've demanded I be charged what's marked in store, but I didn't. The cashier did offer to refund my money but I said no, it's going to the artists, forget it. Even though I thanked her & left, I was irritated.I personally find this happens way too often in high-end/local-artist-type stores where they charge what they want at check-out. I guess I need to get into a new practice of asking at checkout before I whip out my CC for sticker shock.

Small but delightful! Good collection of mostly Wichita themed local art and cool handcrafted items. Best place I know of in town to support local crafts!

Cool shop full of Wichita themed products. It's been a couple of years since I was there last, but I remeber more of the space was devoted to local craft people. Now I'm not sure how much of it is created localy. In either case there are plenty of neat ICT themed products to help tourists or people who are back in town find some fun gifts. Bring a heavy wallet though, the products are priced on the high side.

I enjoy visiting this little gift shops. They have a huge variety of items, especially with the Wichita Flag. I like that they support local artist and sell their products.
