Baseball is back! And while the fans won’t be showing off their gear inside Kauffman Stadium, you can still grab your favorite Royals shirt and pose in front Kansas City’s best Royals murals. Here are our Top 4 plus a few honorable mentions!
You’ll notice a running theme among these murals, all but one of them was created as part of the Raised Royal Mural project in 2017. For that season, the Kansas City Royals worked with local artists to create some amazing artwork around the city, and thankfully these murals are still viewable today.
