Join us for Around the World, a globally inspired After Hours event at the Albrecht-Kemper Museum of Art celebrating art, culture, cuisine, and the international excitement surrounding the world’s game. Inspired by the global spirit of soccer and Kansas City’s role as a host city for this summer’s international tournament, this special evening invites visitors to experience the museum through a lively celebration of creativity and connection!

Guests can enjoy a variety of around-the-world cuisine, a cash bar, free admission, and a hands-on art activity inspired by the energy and unity of international soccer. Visitors will also have the opportunity to explore our current exhibitions, featuring Western art and Midwestern landscapes that reflect themes of place, identity, and storytelling through painting, sculpture, and drawing.

In addition to the evening’s festivities, Civic Eyewear will be onsite with a special pop-up shopping experience. Whether you are coming for the art, food, atmosphere, or community, Around the World offers a unique opportunity to gather, celebrate, and experience the museum in a fun and welcoming way!
