Old School Argument For KC Arts Funding
(Taxpayer) Funding for Kansas City Arts is a longstanding argument that always hopes to convince the electorate that this cowtown could be just like Paris, San Francisco . . . And now Portland . . . If we just up more cash.
Here's a brief trip down memory lane . . .
Kansas City Public Art PSA "We're in Good Company"
This one was produced by Kansas City, Missouri's One Percent For Art Program and it imagines public art in this town as "beacons of our cultural and economic vitality" and not a bad joke.

Eiffel Tower; Golden Gate Bridge; The Arch; Sky Curlers.
How did you know??? My thought process EXACTLY Mr. Cleaver!!!
We need alot more art like the humming sculpture in the city parking garage next to city hall. The homeless guy sleeping in the stairwell there yesterday really seemed to be enjoying it.
And I don't think that ws a bond attorney, but you can never be sure.
The Eiffel Tower, the Arc, The Carwash
Actually the Eiffel Tower was only meant to be temporary, and Saint Louis has the arch and is one of the worst places in America to live. Art cannot change the fact that KCMO is a crime ridden, corrupt soon to be bankrupt mess.
Never given it much thought, 8:18, bu perhaps the Sky Curlers were inspired by and intended to represent the large rotating brushes one might find at a car wash.
Does anybody know how much the art money has cost the city and tax payors?
WOW! I don't remember Cleaver looking that young. I remember the art work but not the image of his youth. Incredible. Thank God for Youtube.
He's been a public "servant" a long time. ha ha
Cleaver looks young because he doesn't have the burden of worrying about paying back his loans weighing on him. It's easy to look young when you don't pay your bills!!
Cleaver has a personal public art collection. It's is taxpayer paid for tennis courts.
