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.
Community Outreach and Engagement
The educational and community outreach programs created by the Kauffman Center for the Performing Arts offer unprecedented access to arts experiences for young people and underserved audiences in the Kansas City metropolitan area.
The Kauffman Center’s community outreach programs and engagement programs provide many unique avenues to connect local youth and families with outstanding performing arts experiences.
Our Volunteers Are Part of the Performance
Volunteers are one of the Kauffman Center’s greatest assets. This dedicated group of community members generously shares their time to fill the 50+ shifts required for every performance.
We offer close and free parking during volunteer shifts, flexible scheduling, an excellent training program, social outings around Kansas City, special events hosted at the Kauffman Center, and much, much more!
