The IDSA Kansas City (KC) Chapter serves the networking and professional development needs of industrial designers in Kansas City, Kansas and surrounding areas including Missouri. Some of the activities and events that Kansas City Chapter has produced include lectures, studio tours, and collaborations with other professional design organizations.
As a member of the Center for Architecture and Design, a unique organization to Kansas City, IDSA has a direct connection to and part of the pulse of design in the city – through KC Design Week, Student Careers Day, Cocktails & Conversations, and a wide variety of other events.
IDSA Kansas City also supports design students in the area, including Kansas State University, the University of Kansas, and Kansas City Art Institute. We encourage a strong partnership between the student chapters and the professional chapter that includes portfolio reviews, career development, and social events.
The chapter officers below were elected to position by members of the Kansas City Chapter and hold a two-year term.
