VerifiedMagazine
KC Studio magazine launched in May 2008 and is published six times a year, anchored in the arts and culture of Kansas City. KC Studio covers the performing, visual, cinematic and literary arts, and the artists, organizations and patrons that make Kansas City a vibrant center for arts and culture. Great cities possess a strong arts and cultural scene, and support of the arts is an essential part of a city’s success and community growth. The best way to further stimulate audience development begins with making people aware of the many wonderful art and cultural opportunities available. That is an essential part of KC Studio‘s mission, and we strive to fulfill it in a lively, engaging way that gets people excited and involved as users and patrons of the arts. Source
