A multifaceted arts education and expansion space, Arts Incubator includes 47 active studios, a gallery, and a third-floor event space designed to promote local artists and their work and help them build a solid foundation on which to continue their art careers.
The on-site Cocoon Gallery hosts several exhibits throughout the year in a variety of mediums.
Artist receptions are typically held on First Fridays [2], and exhibits are shown through the end of the month.
The variety of local art exhibited, combined with Arts Incubator’s enduring commitment to promoting and assisting local artists, has made the gallery a favorite with residents and visitors alike, earning “best independent gallery” accolades from KC Magazine.
