SUPPORT ART, SUPPORT KCAC

For more than four decades, the Kansas City Artists Coalition (KCAC) has worked tirelessly to survey the needs of artists right in Kansas City.
Our grassroots organization has been on the forefront of growing and nurturing the arts and the support of artists and the arts in our community. Through our exhibition series we work to bring awareness to the community as to why the arts are critical in a thriving and healthy ecosystem. There is no community without the arts.
Give today and support the organization that has been working on behalf of arts of Kansas City for 48 years and counting!
-
Kansas City Artists Coalition exhibitions, workshops, artist studios and educational programs provide artists encouragement and reward for their work. These opportunities work to advance artists' careers by enriching and growing their creative development and audience.
At the same time the Kansas City community is given a chance to experience new work, learn about contemporary art, meet local, regional and national artists and experience culture as it is being created.

If you are an artist, an art patron, new to the community, looking for something new to do, friend to all, in need of new friends – let us be your connection. Volunteer for artwork installation (or deinstallation), become a docent, or assist with the annual art auction – WE NEED YOU & we’ll teach you the ropes. No experience necessary.
