Our very own Evan Maddox will be joining an incredible conversation at the 2025 MIDWEST SYMPOSIUM ON SOCIAL ENTREPRENEURSHIP with fellow KC-based artists Chico Sierra and Clint Velazquez, moderated by Andrew Heise in the Kauffman Foundation Conference Room Center at UMKC.

SESSION DESCRIPTION: Kansas City is home to a growing community of artists whose work bridges creative practice and social impact. This session features KC-based artist-social entrepreneurs working in visual art, new media, and community-based music education. Panelists will discuss how artistic practice can serve broader community goals, from grassroots organizing to building sustainable, mission-driven organizations. The conversation will focus on practical approaches to integrating art and entrepreneurship in ways that support community development and social impact.
