About the Art Fair
The Plaza Art Fair is annually held at Country Club Plaza, which is Kansas City’s premier shopping and dining destination. The event started in 1932 as a promotion to draw shoppers to the area and to lift their spirits during the great depression.
What started as a small event held in an empty lot has become a Kansas City tradition that encompasses multiple city blocks and attracts a crowd of over 250,000 people. In the first fair, 90 artists displayed their paintings by leaning them against trees and benches, and now well over 200 local and international artists display their artwork.
In addition to art, the event also features live music, food, Kids’ activities, and so much more. In 2023, the three-day Kansas City Plaza Art Fair will be held from Friday, September 22 to Sunday, September 24.

My wife and I are celebrating our 50th anniversary on opening night, Sept. 23rd. We’ve been happily married all this time, and yet I never asked her to marry me. One night I just said “let’s get married.” So now, finally, I plan to “propose” to her, and renew our vows. If possible I’d like to do it on stage to thoroughly embarrass her! Unfortunately I don’t know which bands are playing and on which stage. Preferably an oldies band would be great. Please let me know if this is possible? BTW, I don’t want my wife to know anything about it, so if anyone calls our house, please don’t say anything to her.
Take care, and stay safe;
