I turned on some Kansas the other day; they used this as one of their album covers. Great band, crazy painting. Really cool it's still up for the public to see, I've heard it's massive. Also, I've done some similar lobbying work with my union. Hopefully your experience was less depressing than mine! Our reps here are awful lmao

Had no idea this is in Kansas and was there for many years. I'm sure I haven't read enough on the state but there's definitely a cool & radical history to Kansas, more than one would expect being what came of it in modern times.
