Discuss issues and solutions around Kansas City’s vanishing studio spaces with business and art leaders.
 
Details: Quality studio spaces are disappearing from prime areas in Kansas City. Artists and their art have enhanced and rejuvenated areas, communities, and businesses only to have their studio spaces face increased rents, or have their buildings be repurposed to attract a different clientele.

Nationally businesses, communities, and patrons are hosting art studios, residencies, galleries, and pop-up performances to help support artists. The process projects innovation, diverse thinking, outreach, reflection, and outward thinking. What more can we do in Kansas City to support our artists?

If you’re a business owner, a patron of the arts, or an artist, you won’t want to miss the conversation. Join us Thursday, January 16 at 21C Museum Hotel.

p.s. Stay after for drinks and networking at The Savoy at 21c.

5:30-6pm – Networking with light refreshments & a cash bar

6-7:10pm – Panel & community discussion

Co-hosts: Crossroads Community Association, Downtown Council, Midtown Now, KC Film, 21c Museum Hotel  & GUILDIt
