Somewhere Over Kansas City

This heart celebrates Kansas City’s vibrant spirit by blending KC’s iconic architecture, El Salvadoran folk art, and the excitement of the 2026 FIFA World Cup. A city uniting together through soccer shines on the front, while the back transforms into an Oz-inspired dreamscape filled with poppies, ruby slippers, and a Kansas City inspired Emerald City. Together, the front and back showcase the heart of Kansas City, turning its culture, sport, and imagination into a vibrant, colorful tribute.
