Night/Shift: Outer Range

Night/Shift: Outer Range is a special event at the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art that invites families to explore how we connect with nature through landscape, sight, and sound. You'll journey through the museum's galleries spanning East Asia to the American Midwest, experiencing nature-inspired activities, performances, and community projects along the way. Whether you're interested in biking, hiking, or other ways of experiencing the land, there's something for everyone to enjoy. This is a free event, making it an accessible way to spend an afternoon at one of Kansas City's premier cultural institutions. Families can expect an interactive experience that goes beyond traditional museum viewing, with hands-on elements and live performances that bring the theme to life. It's a great option for parents looking to engage kids with art and nature in a creative, dynamic setting.
