Kaleidoscope is a free-admission creative center sponsored by Hallmark Cards that invites children and families to engage with the arts and their imaginations in a variety of family-friendly art projects and creative initiatives. The center, which is located in downtown Kansas City's Crown Center, began as a community service initiative in 1969, led by Hallmark chairman Donald J. Hall, and has attracted more than 1.1 million visitors since its opening. It is open to the public Mondays through Saturdays and hosts 50-minute Creative Art Sessions daily, encouraging visitors to craft brand-new art projects from leftover materials used to create Hallmark greeting cards and products. Visitors should note that all children must be accompanied by an adult at all times.
