The kite festival has been canceled for 2021. If you're looking for a safe and fun event for the family, check out ALL FOR THE CHILDREN, a drive-through event being held Saturday, March 27 at MCC-Blue River. https://mcckc.edu/events/all-for-the-children We hope to bring back FLIGHTS OF FANCY in 2022; we miss you and this colorful event!

Due to the quarantine and social distancing measures being taken to prevent the spread of COVID-19, Flights of Fancy is canceled this year. It is our sincere hope that the festival can go on as usual next year. We ask for your patience and support in this decision.

If you have questions about how to care for yourself or others during this time, please refer to the CDC's website.

Whoops, falling down on the job here and totally missed National Kite Flying Day. Who celebrated? Share with us!

Did you know that Flights of Fancy is organized by the Community Education Department at MCC-Longview? We have lots of interesting classes to check out for the spring 2020 semester. And, we're not just at the MCC-Longview Campus anymore. Look for classes at MCC-Penn Valley Campus, MCC- Maple Woods Campus and MCC-Blue River Campus. #MCCKC #MCCProud #ServingCommunities
