Media Kit 2010

KCMetropolis.org fills an essential need in the community for definitive performing arts coverage. A true grassroots movement, we bring together the voices of many expert writers, musicians, musicologists and arts aficionados; and working in partnership with other arts-related and tourism-based organizations, will strive to present the most extensive and exciting coverage ever offered of our rich performing arts community. October 5 marked our first anniversary of publishing..

Internet advertising is 85% less expensive than traditional print media and has the potential of being viewed by a much larger audience. KCMetropolis.org has a very targeted voluntary-based readership that supports, follows and attends the performing arts in the Kansas City metro area.
