Time to get inspired with art, culture, music, shopping, food and drinks down in the crossroads art district. It is known to be one (of the 5) biggest art districts in the NATION!?
Kelley Walker Chance, an amazing photographer here in Kansas City, is having a photo exhibit at IMAGO GALLERY. She is displaying her photos from her Cape Town Collection. Check out her creative talent at KELLEY PHOTO + DESIGN. She's got a great eye for composition, and creative skills with light and color.
There are over 100 different studios and 400 artists. Many big name artists and locals display their work to a crowd of 12,000 people! it seems since i first experienced first fridays for an art history class about 6 years ago that the studios have become more prevalent, and popular each month!! As I had interned at architecture 360, in the crossroads district, I found that there are many design firms within BLOCKS of each other, like the brilliant studios of Barkley (advertising), mk12 (motion graphics), and rushwade2(photography). Its become a habitual event to introduce to new friends to hit up the galleries, experience the diverse environments, and then devour a delicious greasy burger in the tiny old 1935 burger joint of TOWN TOPIC!!
