PARADE OF HEARTS
Jenn Nussbeck| Co-Chair
The mission for the parade of hearts is to unite our region through an incredible public art experience. Original artwork based on the kc heart will be placed around the region and promoted as a tourism activity. The goal is to set a national example of unification, truly showing the country we are the heartland with a common purpose of making our communities strong. Embracing kansas city’s place as the “heart of america,” the event will energize the local economy, boost tourism, and revitalize retail and service sectors, and raise funds for those most affected by the events of 2020 and 2021.
