Membership

Kansas City artists gathered in the studio of Philomene Bennett and Lou Marak, the meeting’s agenda was “How the Artist Can Benefit From Centralization.” Overwhelmingly the group felt a self-initiated organization was the only alternative to isolation, elitism, apathy, and ignorance. The Kansas City Artist Coalition was formed.
