KC Art Alley
KC Collection Letterbox Decommissioned.
Why was it decommissioned?
Alexis has committed to replacing every letterbox once. If the replacement letterbox goes missing, she will find a new landmark to highlight & place a letterbox there instead. The original (then, missing one) will be designated in the Eco-Wall of Curiosities & a new art box will be added to the collection. This is what happened to this box. Sad times.
The Art Alley box is #1 of 26 locations in this series.
​
Thanks for joining the fun of The Curiosity Passport! We hope it inspires play and exploration of the KC area. If you haven't already viewed the wacky, wall-full of mini-mosaics, upcycled from used plastic gift cards, at Pawn & Pint & Buttonwood Art Space, these are excellent places to start your journey (not required, but definitely nifty!). Pick up a passport (if you don't already have a logbook) there and follow these clues to find the awesome letterboxes at the locations that inspired those mini-mosaics in real life.

Welcome to Art Alley!
Walk into this amazing, ever-changing gallery!
Keep going.
No need to be on the fence about this ...yet.
That fence looks sharp! Look away!
I told you to look away! Turn around now!
Good job. Look North. ...now look East.
Well done! That is a much less menacing fence!
Is that an arrow?
Yep! An arrow! This is the second box for this alley. PLEASE be stealthy & rehide well!
