Missouri GOURDen community arts & garden gathering
Missouri GOURDen bower Troost Ave, (by the Discovery Center), Kansas City, Missouri 64110
With its vine-covered roof, the “gourd-zebo” at 48th & Troost serves both as a shady summer refuge and the site of Missouri GOURDen, a community arts and garden project. And with its three open doorways, the garden house welcomes people from across the city to join in raising gourds and crafting shekere instruments from them. Arts and garden gatherings at the site are held on first and third Saturdays from 8:30-10am through the summer. Gatherings offer people the chance to share in tending the garden either for recreation or to earn volunteer hours, and arts activities are also available.
Price: free
Ages: families welcome
