AtA is designed to encourage and empower architects and their clients to incorporate art and artists of excellence from the Kansas City area into their projects. New architectural projects may achieve Gold, Silver or Bronze levels of Art Achievement by dedicating a percentage of the construction budget to collecting artworks, commissioning temporary or permanent artworks, and/or including artists on design teams. AtA provides a range of tools to support this practice, including a database of eligible artists selected annually.

AtA is a partnership between American Institute of Architects-Kansas City and the Charlotte Street Foundation, a non-profit organization dedicated to artists in Kansas City.

New Missouri Bank Crossroads Branch has been awarded Art through Architecture Gold Level "Art Achievement." Components include renovated billboards featuring a rotating selection of commissioned artworks by Kansas City artists, plus new exterior sculpture by Jesse Small. more...
