Photograph of Vanderslice Hall at the Kansas City Art Institute, located at 4415 Warwick Boulevard, looking west from the entry drive off Warwick, circa 1980. The building was constructed as a home for August Meyer, first president of Kansas City's Board of Parks Commissioners, in 1895-6. Designed by Van Brunt and Howe, the family called the home "Marburg" and lived there until in 1927. It was then purchased by local businessman Howard Vanderslice for $140,000 and donated to the Kansas City Art Institute. It housed classrooms and studios initially, and later servedas an administrative building for the college. An auditorium addition was added in 1930, designed by local architecture firm Wight and Wight. A neighborhood homes tour was established in the early 1980s as a fundraiser to support refurbishing Vanderslice Hall and undoing mid-century modernizations. The building was added to the National Registry of Historic Places during the same time period.
