Kansas City, MO – This year, the organization expanded its definition of "artist" to include an actor and playwright, a dancer/choreographer, and a musician. KCUR's Steve Walker gathered the honorees together and found them to be equally flattered, humbled, and appreciative.
A celebration of the 2008 Fellows' work, including live performances, is set for Friday, November 14, 8pm, at the Kansas City Repertory Theatre Copaken Stage, 1 H&R Block Way, in downtown Kansas City. This event is free and open to the public.
