The Charlotte Street Awards for Generative Performing Artists, a new program designed to nurture and stoke the grassroots performing arts community in Kansas City will be held on Friday, November 14.  These Awards aim to support and recognize outstanding, innovative, original generative performing artists with unrestricted cash awards, as Charlotte Street Awards to Visual Artists have done for over a decade.

Envisioned as an annual program, these Awards are intended to recognize artists in the fields of dance, theater, music, experimental music performance, theater/performance art, and hybrid/interdisciplinary versions.

 This year's recipients are dancer DeAnna Hiett, producer/actor Ron Megee, and musician Mark Southerland.  Each artist will perform a live original work in lieu of an awards ceremony in honor of the occasion.
