Nature is beautiful and it’s bountiful. You can find nature’s bounty everywhere you look! Whether it’s flowers, fields, plants, greenery, fruits, vegetables, insects, or anything create by Mother Nature, it’s beauty is undeniable and provides wonderful subject matter for artwork!
Artists are asked to submit works that show “Nature’s Bounty”. Artwork may include anything which comes from nature as well as abstract works inspired by natural themes. We know our artists will have plenty to submit, and we can’t wait to see it all!
Artworks may include: paintings, photographs, 3D pieces, fiber works, jewelry and much more! 50% of sold artworks will go directly to artists, with the remaining 50% benefiting Kansas City Community Gardens (KCCG).
KCCG’s mission is to empower and inspire low-income households, community groups, and schools in the Kansas City Metropolitan area to grow their own vegetables and fruit. KCCG provides free gardening workshops, technical assistance, garden supplies, and other resources to individuals, families, neighborhood organizations, nonprofit agencies, and other groups throughout the metropolitan Kansas City area through the Self-Help Gardening (Rent A Plot & Home Gardens) and Community Partner Gardens programs.
In addition, KCCG’s Schoolyard Gardens program staff help schools to create and grow gardens to improve students’ knowledge about nutrition and the importance of fresh fruits and vegetables to a healthy diet.
