Tips for Exploring “The New Midwest” during NCA Conference
“The New Midwest. It wasn’t a thing until we made it. Because That’s How We Do Kansas City.”
That pronouncement from the Kansas City Visitors Bureau is really an invitation to explore all that Kansas City has to offer. Anyone heading to the National Costumers Association’s 2019 Conference in July will have myriad options to explore during any free time they might have. After all, National Geographic named Kansas City one of the “Best Trips in 2019!” As the KC Visitor’s Bureau says, “There’s something happening here. A new energy. A revolution of creativity, music, food, art, business—a renewed spirit in every neighborhood. A bigger idea of what the Midwest can be.”
