KC Design Week | Design Battle

OPENING NIGHT: Cut&Paste’s DESIGN SLAM

Watch a heart-pounding contest of quick-witted design and high-energy showmanship as Kansas City’s finest battle it out in the ultimate design competition!

Inspired by the global success of Cut&Paste’s annual Digital Design Tournament, the Cut&Paste Design Slam is a fast-paced format that tests the skill, speed and stage presence of contestants as they create original designs in timed rounds. The area’s best engineers, architects and designers compete to impress judges as they demonstrate impressive mastery in their respective fields. Audience members will get a front-row seat to the creative process in real time via large-scale projections.

This successful touring competition has been rapidly gaining in popularity since its launch in 2009—this is your first opportunity to see Cut&Paste in Kansas City!

Cut&Paste is a global movement of artists, firms, and media working to strengthen creative networks through events and local support.

Tickets are $9 in advance, $15 at the door.
