"The Art Institute adds texture to the community, attracting artistic and creative people who then make contributions throughout the city. The faculty have contributed their ideas and talent toward everything from the Freight House district to training a new generation of artists. More than anything, the students and faculty add a texture to the city that would be lacking if the Kansas City Art Institute were not here." - Bill Hall, president, Hall Family Foundation

"If it wasn't for my scholarship, I wouldn't be here. I've always wanted to go to art school - it's been close to my heart forever. KCAI had a great scholarship package, and I just fell in love with the ambience, the people, everything about the Midwest. I am incredibly lucky to be at KCAI, immersed in a whole group of creative thinkers and empowered to do my best." - Krystal Kuhn (sophomore, printmaking)
