Annual Toast For Teachers Bar Crawl
Toast for Teachers 2026 is Kansas City's annual teacher appreciation campaign, bringing together educators, local businesses, nonprofits, and community members to celebrate the people who shape the future every day. From August 7–21, visit participating restaurants, breweries, coffee shops, and businesses across the city while enjoying exclusive specials, giveaways, prizes, and opportunities to connect with fellow educators and supporters.
Hosted by Big Ideas Foundation, this two-week celebration is more than a social event—it's a community-wide effort to recognize educators, support local businesses, and raise funds for youth leadership and educational programming. Whether you're a teacher, school staff member, former student, parent, business owner, or community supporter, there's a place for you in Toast for Teachers. Join us as we celebrate education, strengthen community connections, and invest in the next generation of leaders.
