Created by artists Jose Faus and Alisha Gambino this colorful masterpiece showcases dancers in costumes from 19 Mexican states, while iconic symbols like La Virgen de Guadalupe, Day of the Dead skeletons, and the Mexican coat of arms add even more cultural depth.Ready to explore?

Calling all horror fans! We sat down with Kansas City’s own Darren Lynn Bousman, the mastermind behind the SAW movies, to get an inside look at his latest creation— Exiled - Trail of Terrors . Born and raised right here in KC, Darren has crafted a one-of-a-kind haunted experience that’s nothing like the typical haunted house. Instead, it’s an immersive theatre adventure deep in the woods—an adult playground where you’ll face your darkest fears...and maybe enjoy a drink or two. This 21+ haunt opens Saturday, September 21, and tickets are going fast! Don’t miss your chance to experience horror like never before—get yours now: https://www.exiledkc.com/tickets/......#ExiledKC #Visitkck

Visit Kansas City Kansas has launched the first phase of its KCK Legacy Trail, which will feature 50 stops when completed. Through five distinct journeys, visitors can uncover the rich cultural heritage and historical contributions of Latino, Eastern European, Black, Indigenous, and Modern Immigrant communities. Visitors can download the free pass and check in to unlock audio stories about each location.
The first phase of the launch includes the Eastern European and Latino journeys, each with 20 unique stops.
Our launch party at the Police Athletic League Garden in @strawberryhill_kck was a night to remember. Guests mingled and enjoyed wine from @roweridge , beer and hard lemonade from @range23brewing , savory sausage samplers from @krizmansausage , fresh fruit trays, and ice cream from @heysugaronstrawberryhill .
The KCK Legacy Trail is not just a project; it’s a testament to the vibrant community spirit that defines Kansas City, Kansas. Developed with the input and support of local stakeholders, it offers an authentic and enriching experience for everyone.
Join us on this journey, explore the KCK Legacy Trail, and share your adventures using #KCKLegacyTrail. For more information and to sign up for the Legacy Trail Pass, visit www.visitkansascityks.com/legacy-trail.

The heat won’t stop us from having fun! Today’s agenda: @kinshipcafe.kc 👉 @airpannell’s Alley-OOP 👉 @slapsbbq 🤎
Alley-OOP is one of the @paradeofhearts art pieces located in KCK this year. Considered a “love letter to Kansas City,” this heart represents all things summertime—from shooting hoops to riding exhilarating roller coasters. Artist John used the heart as a reflection of Argentine, Westport and Wyandotte County.
Grab a coffee on your way to Alley-OOP at @strawberryhill_kck’s Kinship Cafe. After taking as many selfies as possible (and marking the heart as visited on the @paradeofhearts app 📲), chow down on barbecue at Slap’s BBQ. Don’t forget to tag us in your adventures!
