Guide to Kauffman Center

Support the Arts Experience

Presenting the world’s finest performing artists to our Kansas City metropolitan communities is a noble and inspiring task. However, ticket sales and rental income don’t begin to cover the full costs.

Your gift of any amount makes a difference. All donations are tax-deductible to the extent allowed by law.
