HOW TO NAVIGATE SITE:
Our 2018 Conference on College Composition & Communication hospitality site is easy to navigate. Each page under the "Eats, Entertainment & Exploration" tab is a different neighborhood/district of Kansas City; each with its own restaurants, bars, entertainment, oddities, 
and culture.  While you'll find a transportation recommendation for each district, all venues listed in the Downtown area are considered "walkable," (less than 0.4 mile from our conference site).  Detailed information on public transit options can be found here. 

+ Clicking on the name of any venue will connect you with that venue's website.   
+ Clicking on the address of any venue will provide GoogleMaps directions from your current location, allowing you to select walking, driving or public transit options.
