If you are unfamiliar with ArtsKC, they are a nonprofit arts organization that provides support for the regional art and culture community. Partnering with local artists to help them improve and pursue their creative passions, ArtsKC is here for you.


If you are a creative in the Kansas City area, I highly recommend getting connected with them and their team. Tonight, we came together to recognize 10 of the 20 local artists that are being highlighted this weekend. 


Tammy Smith founder of Small Ideas Studio

Taylar Sanders visual artist

TJ Hanscum illustrator

Kaycee Johnson founder of By Kaycee with Love

Katie Carrillo founder of Katie Carrillo - Artist and Illustrator

Kidinnacape

Kilo Sade founder of Hey Kilo Cares

Aimee Hagedorn

Yeonji Hong founder of Laoni Art

Audrey Fiorella founder of Oorbelle Handmade


Sitting right at the corner of Southwest Blvd, ArtsKC opened their doors to the artists and their viewers. What a great location they have downtown. A cute studio space perfect for showings and community happenings. 


I hope you enjoy a peek at their 2023 Summer Market event.
