Kauffman Center for the Performing Arts

The Kauffman Center for the Performing Arts serves as the performance home of three of the region’s leading performing arts organizations—Kansas City Ballet, Kansas City Symphony, and Lyric Opera of Kansas City. Designed by architect Moshe Safdie, the 285,000 SF Kauffman Center includes two new stand-alone performance halls, both housed within a dramatic overarching shell featuring a glass roof and glass walls that provide sweeping view of Kansas City. The two venues offer audiences engaging and intimate performance experiences, while at the same time providing resident companies with dramatically enhanced technical capabilities.
