"ILLUMINATE the ARTS" is our annual free community arts outreach performance giving back "the gift of performance" to our community. This collaborative arts project included performances from our current Student INSPIRE Scholarship Recipients for many years. Our final year due to Covid, we moved our performance online, with a newly based artist in Kansas City and performance videos by each of our scholarship students. We also gave them an opportunity to give tribute to their main artistic teacher. "The influence of an artistic teacher can never be erased."
