An unusual art exhibit at the Buttonwood Art Space, 3013 Main Street, celebrates movement, including people on bicycles, dancers, walkers, yoga, and people playing sports.
The exhibition includes 99 artworks by 32 artists and illustrates all forms of human movement and figures in motion. The Art of Human Movement benefits BikeWalkKC, a non-profit group focused on making Kansas City a safer community for walking and biking.
