13th Annual Art in the Loop Project

Art in the Loop is a curated outdoor exhibition of temporary artworks and performances presented in partnership with the KC Streetcar. This year's Art in the Loop Project includes visual artwork based on photography, painting, digitized illustrations, and performances that include dance, spoken word, hip hop, theatrical characters, and more.

This year’s theme, Wonder, invites artists to explore the depth of curiosity within our community and the ways in which we relate to one another, encouraging artists to reflect on the complexities of connection, discovery, and the shared experiences that shape us.
