Welcome to KCAI! Whether you’re a new student preparing for your first week or a parent helping your artist get ready, we know this is an exciting (and maybe a little overwhelming) time.

Let’s make sure your first few days are smooth, stress-free, and filled with creativity!
Let’s be honest—searching through “Untitled_Final_FINAL2_THISone.psd” at 3 a.m. is no one’s idea of a good time.

Here’s how to tame the digital chaos and create a system that actually works for you.

While it’s true that high-quality materials can enhance your work, the truth is much simpler: the best art supplies are the ones you can afford and actually get you making art.
The Underground would like to invite all members of the KCAI community; students, staff, faculty and alumni. to participate in our 5th Annual Mail Art Exhibition!
