HUTCHINSON, Kan. — The agreement for the new Foundation Event Venue for the Kansas State Fairgrounds is on the agenda for the Kansas State Fair Board when they meet on Monday.
The new building will be where the current old Fine Arts building is and will be an open floor plan with a permanent stage, bar counter and kitchen, and it will be temperature controlled.
The event venue will be open year-round to rent out for events like weddings or birthdays.
Revenue from the venue will go back to the State Fair. It is expected to generate up to $200,000 a year.
The board will also get an update from the Livestock Committee and get an update from General Manager Bryan Schulz on SPARK funding.
The board will meet at 1:30 p.m. at the Kansas State Fair Administrative Office on the Fairgrounds. The meeting will also be available on ZOOM.
