“A Summer Sundae Kinda Love,” created by artist Trew Love, was inspired by her childhood, when her father would take her out for ice cream. Love added a secret detail to tie her piece to Kansas City. There are two hidden Kansas City sports teams’ sprinkles. “There is a Royals sprinkle and a Chiefs sprinkle that you can find if you look for them,” Love said.

“Hope Blooms,” created by artist Ada Koch, was inspired by World War I and the portrayal of poppies. During WWI, poppies were a sign of hope after all the violence and destruction. Koch said the Parade of Hearts was something the Kansas City community could use after the events of the last few years. “We’ve all gone through the pandemic and a lot of unrest in the last two years, and they want to be positive, and I thought, ‘Perfect, poppies fit right in there,’” Koch said. Koch’s heart was placed at the WWI Museum, and she said she felt it was the perfect space.

“For The Love of Kansas City,” created by artist Mollie Hanselman, was inspired by the Kansas City skyline. Her design used simple primary colors and shapes. “I hope that because of how simple the shapes are and elementary the color scheme is that they become in tune with their inner child and are able to see the world through them,” Hanselman said.
