A summer of art and activities is on its way to Prairie Village. The first-ever Prairie Village Art Walk kicks off on Friday, June 11, with a ribbon cutting for the “Fifties Freedom In The Village” sculpture at 71st Street and Mission Road. Jessie Cartwright, a Prairie Village resident and daughter of Anna Belle Campbell, who created the city’s iconic “Homesteaders” sculpture, pitched the idea for the art walk last winter. Cartwright and the Prairie Village Arts Council collected data on the city’s existing public art, created an art walk team and selected a geo-mapping app for the event.
