Confluence of Nations Plaza
Kiosk
The open-air Education Pavilion at the Lewis and Clark Historic Park
at Kaw Point has interpretive signs about the Lewis and Clark expedition
as well as a plaque describing the events of 1804. This plaza is a
focal point in the 10-acre park, surrounded by the Confluence of Nations
outdoor amphitheater.
Nations Flags
Flags from 19 regional Native tribes are represented here, including the
Wyandot, Wea-and-Pianshaw, Shawnee, Seneca, Sac-and-Fox, Quapaw,
Potawatomie, Peoria, Ottowa, Otoe-Missouria, Osage, Miami, Kick-a-poo,
Kaskaskia, Kansa, Iowa, Delaware, Chippewa, Cherokee.
Brickyard
Donor bricks are used to pave the Education Pavilion Plaza. Donations
to the donor brick program allow anyone to contribute to this legacy
project that will be enjoyed by generations. The bricks on the
Confluence of Nations Plaza have been donated by individuals and
corporations helping to make Kaw Point Park a valued natural setting in
the otherwise industrial center of Kansas City. Help continue to support
and expand the park by purchasing a brick engraved with your name, your
company's name, or in memory of a loved one. |
