Greetings from Kelly Urich, the most trusted name in hit music!The 75th annual Plaza Art Festival reportedly brought 300,000 people to the plaza this weekend. The real work of art was parking within a mile of the exhibits. This is considered one of the top 5 art fairs in the nation and many of the exhibitors say it's their favorite. Congratulations to everyone who won free tickets to the art fair on my show.
FYI, Kansas City ranks #16 in the best Art Cities in America, according to a survey from American Style magazine. Minneapolis was #9, St. Louis #22 among cities with populations between 100,000 to 499,000.
