What we do
The Kindred Area Arts Partnership strives to provide arts programming, events and activities year
round. Sponsors and supporters are essential in making these opportunities come to fruition. Most of the funds to support the programming are raised by our generous sponsors, ticket holders and auction bidders at the annual [Love, Art] Gala fundraiser each February.
KAAP also applies for grants and partners with other community organizations to fund opportunities like Artist in Residence.
