Vi Tran has a story to tell.

“I am equal parts sea salt and wheat fields,” he hints.

More can be found in the attached video, part of “Art Moves Us,” a program developed by Kansas City PBS in partnership with ArtsKC to celebrate the arts in the city we love.

“The arts help give a city its identity,” Tran notes.
