INTERSECT ARTS
Community Classes
Building Community Deepening Connections Sharing Interests
Intersect Arts is more than classes—it’s a movement to create a connected and thriving community in the heart of the Historic Northeast of Kansas City, Missouri at 606 Gladstone Avenue. Launched by a collective of passionate local teachers and artists, Intersect Arts offers affordable classes designed to bring neighbors together through creativity and shared experiences.
We believe that these classes have the power to transform both individuals and the community. That’s why we’ve created a range of classes that are accessible to everyone. Starting with martial arts, yoga, and singing, Intersect Arts envisions adding painting, theatre arts, and culinary arts. Intersect Arts welcomes all ages and skill levels.
Each class goes beyond learning a skill. It is crafted to build relationships, foster community, and spark conversations about how to make our neighborhood stronger together. Our classes encourage sharing, supporting one another, and even strategizing on ways to build community.
We invite you to join us at our spacious, historic venue . Whether you’re here to explore a new passion, meet new people, or simply have fun, Intersect Arts welcomes you.
