Help KCM make the match
Please help make KCM a sustainable voice for the performing arts for many years to come - help us meet our match goal. Every little bit helps. THANK YOU to those of you who have donated over the past month - we are getting there...
KCMetropolis.org - YOUR Online Journal of the Performing Arts - is a nonprofit arts service organization designed to offer critical, quality dialogue about our community's performing arts through new online technologies and social medias. We have been publishing for over a year and feature articles on traditional and independent classical music, dance, theatre, indie films and jazz, and are in the process of launching a new section called theSTEADY that will highlight local hard-working generative performers in the community. We are a true grassroots organization and have 20+ local writers on board - talented and expert voices coming from the musicologists, professional writers, etc within the community.
KCMetropolis.org publishes weekly on Wednesdays and has 600+ articles up on the site stretching back through October 2008. This has allowed us to offer more, and more easily accessible coverage of performing arts events - both small and large - than has ever been offered in one place to the Kansas City community.
In July, KCMetropolis.org debuted a new performing arts calendar - KC Events - that allows arts organizations to add and manage their own events. It is much more than just a listing - click on the link and find an entire page of information on each performance, all with easy links to share, print, send to your mobile, etc. We are partnering with other performing arts organizations, online arts purveyors and tourism-based businesses to make KC Events easily accessible in many locations.
KCMetropolis.org was recently awarded a Missouri Arts Council Capacity Building match grant of $5000 to continue development of crucial coverage for the performing arts in our community. We are the second only online arts organization to receive funding through this government entity.
Please help make us a sustainable voice for the performing arts for many years to come - help us meet the match goal of $5000. Every little bit helps - and any donation will be gratefully accepted and gratefully acknowledged on our website.
It is easy to donate to KCMetropolis.org. Click on donate online via Pay Pal or send your checks to KCMetropolis.org at 814 East 33rd Street, Kansas City, MO 64109. All donations are tax deductible.
