Three Rivers Gallery

About the Wagners

Don and Debbie Wagner created Three Rivers Gallery and The Depot in  Bennington, Kansas, to provide a grassroots facility for various venues of Midwestern artists and to preserve the history and heritage of their hometown region.  The Wagner family first settled in the Bennington area in 1862 and have maintained a multi-generational family farm since that time.

The Facility

The gallery,  originally a lumberyard built in 1898 and operated as such until 1965, changed venues in the 1970's to an antique store.  Don purchased the site in 2004, moved the old train depot onto the site, and has been working on renovations since 2005.  The Depot is a gallery, musical performance site, and community gathering center,  and Three Rivers remains a working artist's studio for Debbie  where she also conducts classes and workshops.
