Art Comes to Life in Kansas City
Right beside the
Hotel Phillips who has won the ArtsKC
Impact Award, 12 Baltimore is doing something different and
intriguing. At least I must admit I didn’t know about it and it’s been
going on for awhile.
They have announced
their fifth artist-in-residence, sculptor Megan Lou Gallant. Her art is
on display throughout the hotel and restaurant and seems to me to be a
combination of the natural world, whimsy, and imagination. Her work has
been exhibited at lots of different places, including the H&R Block Artspace.
I love the idea of
art with food and drink and her studio/storefront will often have its door
open, and you are welcome to join her, look at a current work in progress, and
interact with her. And don’t forget to eat before or after at the
restaurant, which has a new chef and menu which incorporates new and favorite
items – and one of the best brunches in town! And they have a loooong
happy hour, too and a new cocktail list. Their half price appetizers during
that time are delish and there are specials every day.
If you like art, if
you like food and drink, you should definitely check out all three at 12
Baltimore, next to the Hotel Phillips in the heART
of downtown.
