KCAC’s curation process begins with a conversation to understand the client’s vision for their space. We then research and present works by multiple artists to help define a curatorial direction—always making it clear that KCAC does not represent artists but works to connect them to opportunity. Once a direction is set, we contact the selected artist to confirm interest and availability, and, when applicable, share any gallery representation details with the client.

KCAC offers curation services at the following rates:

• Over 40 linear feet of installed artwork: $2,500 per 6-month rotation

• Under 40 linear feet: $1,250 per 6-month rotation
