Big Plan on Campus - View this location on map

'Kansas may be the last place you'd expect to meet Claude Monet or Dante Gabriel Rossetti, but canvases by both are hanging in the Spencer Museum of Art (785-864-4710; free) on the university campus. Head to the stately building, where you'll also see Buddhist statues, Italian Renaissance paintings and modern works by Larry Rivers, Robert Motherwell and others. If you've wondered who lived in Kansas tens of millions of years before Dorothy and Toto did, tread up the hill to the imposing Natural History Museum (1345 Jayhawk Boulevard; 785-864-4450; free).''
