The Art of (Autumn)

Our photography series, “The Art of (KC),” brings you beautiful, thought-provoking and compelling images of what makes our city tick.

Across the city, we were lucky enough to see the maples progress from yellow to red, and to catch an appropriately spooky nighttime shot on Halloween. Kansas City in fall is an extraordinary sight, so before the trees all drop their leaves, we hope to see a few of your shots, too.

We invite you to get out your phone, your camera, your sketchbook — whatever — and let us see your POV.
