Like Rome, Kansas City is famous for its fountains. Over the last 125 years, KC’s fountains have been constructed for purposes as varying as horse troughs, clean drinking water, and art; their meaning has shifted from civilizing to civilized. The fountains are clues to the city’s social, economic, and environmental history, and are a visual commemoration of the extensive but largely invisible infrastructure that connects all people to the river.
Note: The program will be presented in person at the Kansas City Public Library-Central Library and live streamed on the Central Library's and the Linda Hall Library's Facebook pages. Registration is not required to view the Facebook live stream.
