The 2018 Art in the Loop Project: KC Plays! infuses the center of Downtown Kansas City with innovative and engaging temporary art that will refresh, intrigue and surprise Downtown employees, residents, and visitors. The project also creates opportunities for local emerging and established artists to extend their practice into the Downtown environment with curatorial, professional and logistical support.
The 2018 West Terrace Park artists and their works are:
- Denise DiPiazzo, SlinkyBall
- Stacey Sharpe, Air Play
