Through fundraising efforts, which included a benefit concert featuring Suzy Bogguss, as well as a generous gift from the Bobby Megli Estate, the TECH Art Studio quickly became a reality.

STRATACA
C U L T U R E
3650 E. Ave. G UNDERKANSAS.ORG 620.662.1425 Strataca has celebrated 10 years of taking visitors 650 feet underground into a working salt mine. Guests are able to explore the mine by taking a train ride through one of the largest salt deposits in the world. Another option is the salt safari — a guided experience into not-so-explored parts of the mine. Unusual formations are pointed out by trained guides. Exhibits on the self-guided museum tour underground include heavy equipment, dynamite displays and other items that are a window into another time. Cars and a tractor, as well as the mining equipment illustrate the ingenuity that was required. Items once abandoned as trash are now fascinating displays. Museum exhibits include some of the unusual items stored underground by Underground Vaults and Storage. The climate is perfect for safe storage and this company preserves items from every state and many foreign countries. On display are costumes from Hollywood blockbusters. One of the Eight Wonders of Kansas, Strataca is the only attraction of its kind in the western hemisphere. Visit underkansas.org for more information or to make a reservation.
H O U RS: Tuesday — Saturday 9 a.m. — 5 p.m. Sunday 1 p.m. — 5 p.m. Closed Mondays except for Holidays
