My Interests

I'd like to meet:

If you are passionate about sustaining the arts in Kansas City by ensuring that there are secure sources of funds available to help keep arts organizations and artists flourishing, join us! The ArtsKC Fund is for the entire metropolitan area -- everyone counts and every dollar raised counts in securing the future of the arts in Kansas City.

Get into the rhythm of giving!



A monthly contribution from you can make a monumental impact on our arts community. Take a backstage glance at how your gift could perform:

$1.25 per month could buy one theatrical light bulb at Starlight Theatre.

$5 per month could fund twelve students' attendance at a Carlsen Center school performance.

$10 per month could cover the fee for one chorister singing one performance at the Lyric Opera.

$21 per month could fund one-hour multicultural art activity for 50 children at Mattie Rhodes Art Center.

$25 per month could buy face paints for the Art Room at Wonderscope Children's Museum of Kansas City.

$75 per month could provide a dozen area classrooms with the dramatic 50-minute workshop "Life on the Oregon Trail" from Kansas City Young Audiences.

$150 per month could cover the recording and production expenses for a one-hour radio broadcast of a Kansas City Symphony performance.
