Fortopia
May 23-September 2, 2024

Fortopia, a playful outdoor exhibition comprised of awe-inspiring forts, invites explorers of all ages to uncover Powell Gardens. This vibrant addition to summer in Kansas City encourages outdoor discovery and taps into the nostalgia of childhood fort building.

After opening a public request for proposals, eight forts were selected for the exhibition. Designed to inspire outdoor play, Powell Gardens is excited for visitors to experience Fortopia’s wonder this summer. The fort designers include a team of preschool children, artists, landscape designers, architects, and more. Fortopia opens May 23 and runs through September 2, 2024.
