Soul Sundays Analog Market is taking over Rock Island Bridge this Sunday. ☀️🌉

We’re bringing together live music, local artists, small businesses, coffee, matcha, and some of the best sunset views in the city for an ALL Analog Market built around slowing down and being present.

Come hang with us, unplug for a while, soak up the sun, and enjoy a night that feels a little more real and a little less online.

See you Sunday at 5PM!

We opened just 50 days ago, and the Q***r Bar Takeover event was one of the first nights that really showed what this space can do.

1,200 people came out, and together they raised $4,300 for Our Spot KC . Hear Lance on what it was like hosting on the bridge.
