Past Exhibits
No Divide KC is committed to Art that sparks conversations about who we are, where we’ve been, and where we’re going. Our new home in the historic Livestock Exchange Building now serves as a rotating gallery, and we’re committed to keeping it a place where artists of all backgrounds can take risks, share stories, and imagine boldly. This is a space for voices that deserve to be seen, celebrated, and supported, always with heart, always with community.
Past Futures: Queer Narratives Festival Visual Art Exhibit
Curated in collaboration with Habitat Contemporary Gallery, Past Futures invited queer artists to explore how history, identity, and community cycle across generations. Through personal stories, cultural shifts, and visual echoes of the past, this exhibit asked: what new futures might emerge if we really listen to what came before?
DeAnna Skedel – Winter 2025
DeAnna Skedel’s studio works are a blend of nature, memory, materials, and labor — woven together like recipes passed down. Her collages, eco-prints, drawings, and found objects fuse the natural with the human-made to reflect evolving identity, social expectations, and the unseen voices of women. A meditation on wisdom, intuition, and the cycles of life.
The Self, Realized
The Self, Realized was a first-of-its-kind student exhibition, showcasing bold introspection through portraiture, symbolic imagery, and body-centered expression. Artists from UMC, KCAI, UMKC, University of Missouri, Longview, and JCCC joined in to give form to identity, vulnerability, ritual, and the many textures of being.
