✨ Gathering in the Grove is more than an art show—it’s a celebration of the working art of the tallgrass. From hand-tooled leather and hammered silver to pottery shaped by prairie hands, each piece tells a story of grit, grace, and heritage. These women don’t just create beauty; they craft legacy, one stitch, one strike, one kiln-fire at a time. 🌾🤠

Gathering season in the Flint Hills can mean a couple different things.
1. Cattle coming off the tall grass is an iconic staple to ranchers in our area... photographers too!
2. Fall is truly a time when we consider slowing down long enough to get together with friends and family for holidays.
