ICT Soup is Wichita’s crowd-funded meal for artist projects. Here’s how it works: buy a ticket, share a simple meal with your neighbors, hear short pitches from local artists, and vote for the idea you want to see funded. The artist with the most votes takes home the evening’s proceeds to bring their project to life.

Launched in 2016 by artist Amanda Pfister, ICT Soup ran through 2021, building seed funding, visibility, and community connections for Wichita artists. ICT Soup is back as an official Harvester Arts program and will be held quarterly at Harvester Arts.

Saturdays | 12–2 p.m. | Harvester Arts - 120 E First St N. Ste 115. Wichita. KS | $10 minimum / $5 student (cash or card)

Tickets available at the door.
