Kansas City, Missouri
Satirical Midwest merch and gifts in the Crossroads Arts District
Planted at 18th and Baltimore in the Crossroads Arts District, the Kansas City store was the first RAYGUN location outside of Iowa when it opened in 2014, and the neighborhood choice was deliberate — Draper specifically wanted the small-buildings, small-business, art-forward energy of the Crossroads over the more established retail of the Plaza or Westport. It's a good match. The store sits on a corner lot that gets busy during First Fridays, when the whole district opens up its galleries and the surrounding blocks turn into a slow-moving street party. Inside, the Kansas City-specific material is dense and funny — Chiefs shirts, Royals shirts, barbecue jokes, Missouri-vs-Kansas needling, shuttlecock references for the Nelson-Atkins museum crowd — layered over the standard Midwestern, political, and pop-culture rotation. It's a good first stop if you're staying downtown and want to calibrate what kind of city humor KC actually traffics in, which is to say: drier and more self-aware than outsiders tend to assume.
