Nominations now open for Best of KC — support your favorite local people and companies!

It’s a weird time—we know.

Here at Kansas City magazine, we’re hopeful things will get better soon, and that once they do you’ll be back to doing all your favorite things around town.

Right now, we want to know what those things are.

Today we’re opening nominations in our annual Best of KC Readers Poll.

Best of KC is a celebration of all the things we love about this city, and this is your chance to help recognize your personal favorites. We hope that nominating the best of the city in more than 250 categories will help pass time in quarantine and that you’ll use this as another way to support your favorite local businesses during a tough, tough time.

The nomination form is open now through April 23. We’ll then tabulate the nominations and open voting among the finalists on May 14.

Go here to nominate your favorites, and be sure to share this poll with friends and family—our poll allows you to share a link directly to a category you’re passionate about.

If you’ve always dreamed of winning and want to effectively campaign for the honor while quarantined, go here.
