Giving Week 2026
October 25–30, 2026
This year your Giving Week donation can go twice as far thanks to the Seidler Foundation, which has generously committed to matching all donations, up to $50,000.
By making your gift during Giving Week, you directly support KCAI students, helping them create, learn, and thrive while providing vital resources for health, wellness, and crisis support.
Your gift also strengthens KCAI’s long-term sustainability and independence, ensuring the institution can continue serving future generations of fearless creatives.
We are dedicated to nurturing the whole artist—financially, professionally, and personally. All of our students receive financial aid and benefit from individualized career guidance through our Professional Practice Center. They also gain invaluable opportunities to exhibit their work in our two on-campus galleries, engaging with the broader creative community.
KCAI is deeply committed to providing a supportive environment where every student feels valued and inspired. Our students are empowered to pursue their passions and share their vision with the world.
Together, we can ensure that KCAI remains a beacon of creative excellence.
