AUDREY CRABTREE, Executive Director KC Fringe The KC Fringe is the largest celebration of arts and culture in the Kansas City metropolitan area. Returning live for its 22nd season for a two-week explosion of performance, film, visual arts exhibitions, and events that showcase the work of local, national, and international artists. The mostly volunteer-run organization has been supporting artists, cultivating creators, and attracting adventurous audiences since July 2005. Our Mission-KC Fringe Festival champions creative expression by empowering artists to produce bold and innovative work through an annual visual and performing arts festival that is accessible and affordable for all. Our Vision-KC Fringe • Aspires to be the region's leading pipeline for artistic innovation, fostering individuals and groups with opportunities to continue on their artistic journey through education, mentorship, collaborations and partnerships with emerging and established organizations. • Create cultural understanding by amplifying diverse voices through inclusive representation in our artists, programming, audiences, and venues and expanding the festival to be reflective and inclusive of global cultures. • Envisions a vibrant, sustainable cultural landscape where artists and audiences converge, forming a dynamic and engaged community to experience the transformative power of the arts.

We provide opportunities for everyone to contribute and participate in all events and activities whenever possible, and all community members are to be treated with respect and dignity. We seek to expand our reach to fight against injustices and become a more welcoming and equitable place for everyone to enjoy the performing arts.

If you require additional assistance, please contact us one week in advance at accessibility@kcfringe-org.us.stackstaging.com for additional support at the venue. www.kcfringe.org JUNE MCDANIEL, EarlystART CEO, Ex-Officio - Embrace Wonder! The earliest years are the wonder years. A time when children are curious by nature and undeterred by the unknown. That's why an EarlystART education is distinctively different. Here, we believe in the ability of creative expression to fuel and express passion. We are where hope flies high. Where families flourish. Where kids can be kids. Here, we believe all children deserve a great education right from the start and will make the world better because of it. We're EarlystART, an innovator in wonder-filled early education for more than 50 years, and we're just getting started! At EarlystART, we are redefining early childhood education through a unique arts-infused curriculum that nurtures creativity, curiosity, and confidence in children from six weeks to five years old. Our approach goes beyond traditional learning - integrating visual arts, music, movement, and imaginative play into daily instruction to support academic readiness, social-emotional growth and resilience. In a community where many children face significant barriers from the very start, this model is proving transformative. We are seeing firsthand how exposure to the arts helps shape capable, compassionate, and confident young learners - the emerging leaders and citizens our community will rely on in the years ahead. • Why arts-infused learning is a powerful (and often overlooked) driver of long-term success • How EarlystART is addressing critical gaps in access to high-quality early education • The broader impact this work has on families, workforce development, and community vitality • Invite the community to support the Art of Wonder, our signature breakfast event on August 5th at the Zhou B Art Center Our Project Construct evidence-based curriculum encourages positive teacher-student relationships, autonomy, and child-led experiences. In this supportive, collaborative and child-centered environment, students not only develop per their individual needs – they flourish! Project Construct classrooms incorporate many of the activities found in traditional classrooms such as pretend play and block building, but have a clear emphasis on cognitive objectives. At EarlystART, our distinctive approach blends the Project Construct curriculum with the Arts, sparking each child's innate curiosity. We encourage creative expression and foster each child's social competence, support learning through play, and forge strong home-school connections. Our one-of-a-kind arts-infused environment touches all aspects of learning while also engaging families in the process. In turn, our students become enthusiastic, independent, and inquisitive learners as they march to their own beats and do what works for them! The EarlystART curriculum is a magical mix of visual, musical, and dramatic arts that come to life in our classrooms, art studios, and venues around the community. Why Art is Smart-Experiencing the arts prompts the synapses in a child's brain to fire away. And just like that, billions of new connections are formed through arts experiences and creative expression! Our dedicated arts educators integrate the arts in meaningful ways: leading students and parents in after-school Stay-and-Play activities; addressing the special needs of students who have experienced trauma through arts-based therapies; welcoming talented Artists in Residence to The Studio, our on-site makerspace; engaging families and community in artistic and cultural experiences on site and around the community that inspire creative thought and an appreciation for the arts. EarlystART, 2008 E. 12th Street, Kansas City, MO 64127 The flagship center along Kansas City's 12th Street Corridor has long been an anchor of hope and opportunity for children and families living in the historic Northeast neighborhoods or who work in the nearby downtown business district. THE ART OF WONDER Wednesday, August 5th, 2026 | Zhou B Art Center | 8:30-10 AM 1801 E. 18th Street, Kansas City, MO 64108 Wake up, pour a little joy, and let's paint the morning bright together! The Art of Wonder begins with a curated student art gallery showcasing original works created by EarlystART Little Learners. Each piece tells a story of curiosity, imagination, and growth – a vivid reminder of what quality early education makes possible. Join us at this distinctive venue in the Historic 18th & Vine Jazz District. Enjoy coffee, breakfast, and a morning brimming with inspiration – all to benefit EarlystART! www.earlystartkc.org

GM yesterday unveiled a Chevrolet Corvette concept car with a 3D printed body. Not only is the body lighter, but additive manufacturing would allow GM to reduce the part count. According to GM Authority, the carmaker sold a little more than 33,000 Corvettes in the U.S. last year, and advancements in additive manufacturing can already suit applications with volumes in the low tens of thousands—and this one is in the future, so who knows what will be possible then, or, if there will be one. GM's UK team created the concept as part of an advanced design study that includes multiple studios currently preparing to reveal additional Corvette concepts throughout the year.

In this episode of AbbottTalks, Kartik Sundareswaran, PhD, divisional VP, global clinical and regulatory affairs, Abbott Heart Failure, discusses Abbott's pioneering work in heart failure care, focusing on technologies that improve outcomes and empower earlier interventions. Sundareswaran's path to MedTech began with a shift from computer engineering to biomedical research, where his early work studying blood flow patterns in children with congenital heart disease sparked a passion for solving cardiovascular challenges. This passion led him to roles at Thoratec, St. Jude Medical, and ultimately Abbott, where he has spent years advancing heart failure care. The conversation highlights Abbott's CardioMEMS™ Heart Failure System, a device enabling remote pulmonary artery pressure monitoring to reduce hospitalizations, and the HeartMate 3 LVAD, which provides life-extending support for patients with advanced heart failure. Sundareswaran also discusses the new TEAM-HF clinical trial, which combines CardioMEMS and HeartMate 3 to identify patients earlier and deliver timely, effective interventions.

We are aiming not for something, but for someone—the King of Kings, Jesus, the savior of the world. Being part of God's purposes for our world is often difficult as we run counter-cultural to the world. We get so distracted with a million other purposes rather than the one purpose God has called us to. The issue comes down to our affections. Are our affections in the things we do? Or who we follow?

It can be difficult to feel optimistic when faced with the existential threat of climate change. But a new book from marine biologist and writer Ayana Elizabeth Johnson asks us to imagine a different version of our climate future: one in which things work out. What If We Get It Right? is a collection of essays and interviews with environmental experts, farmers, advocates, architects, investors and others on what it would look like to "get it right" on climate change. In today's episode, Johnson speaks with NPR's Ari Shapiro about tailoring climate conversations for different audiences, moving from an extractive to a regenerative economy in this decade and the effort it will take to create a new future.To listen to Book of the Day sponsor-free and support NPR's book coverage, sign up for Book of the Day+ at plus.npr.org/bookofthedayLearn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy
The Automotive Troublemaker w/ Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier
Shoot us a Text.Welcome to Tuesday! Paul's hanging out at Vincue Unleashed, Kyle's at his desk and we've got news to talk about, like how the US's new rule on Chinese software in cars could affect OEMs, how Stellantis is going about its CEO search, and how Google is making Gemini a part of all Workspace accounts.Show Notes with links:The U.S. Commerce Department is considering a new rule that could block automakers like General Motors and Ford from importing vehicles made in China. The move is part of a broader effort to curb the use of Chinese technology, particularly software and hardware, due to national security concerns.GM's Buick Envision and Ford's Lincoln Nautilus, both assembled in China, would be directly impacted and the rule could also affect other automakers, including Volvo and BYD.GM sold about 22,000 Envisions, and Ford sold 17,500 Nautilus crossovers in the U.S. during the first half of 2024.Automakers would need to move production outside of China or apply for specific authorizations to continue selling affected models.Liz Cannon from the Commerce Department said, "Any vehicle manufactured in China and sold in the U.S. would fall within the prohibitions."Stellantis announced it has begun the search for a successor to CEO Carlos Tavares, with his contract expiring in January 2026. While Tavares has led the company since 2021 and made it highly profitable, recent issues in North America are driving the company to refocus.The CEO search is routine, but the company faces pressure due to declining North American sales and profits.In response, Stellantis is slashing vehicle inventories by 100,000 units by early 2025 and has already reduced 40,000 vehicles.CFO Natalie Knight said inventory and pricing discipline are key strategies to weather the EV transition, with some models, like the Jeep Grand Cherokee and Compass, seeing price cuts.Tavares has implemented aggressive cost-cutting measures, including job cuts and a plan to source 80% of parts from low-cost countries by 2028.“We are living in very difficult times where there are going to be winners and losers, and a lot about being the winner is being the last man standing," Knight saidGoogle is making its Gemini AI a central part of its Workspace productivity suite, a move that could significantly boost the chatbot's user base across various industries.Gemini AI will now be included in Workspace Business, Enterprise, and Frontline plans starting in Q4, eliminating the need for a separate Gemini add-on, streamlining AI use for Workspace customers.Google assures that Gemini won't use organizational data to train its AI model and complies with enterprise-grade privacy standards like SOC 1/2/3 and ISO 27701.Workspace Administrators will manage data storage for generated responses and user prompts, adding control and security.Google is also introducing the "Security Advisor" tool to help IT administrators protect againstHosts: Paul J Daly and Kyle MountsierGet the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/ Read our most recent email at: https://www.asotu.com/media/push-back-email
Have you ever heard the rumor that Shakespeare didn't write his own plays? So had we, but By Any Other Name, the new novel by Jodi Picoult, may make the best case for it we have ever read. This novel puts forth a theory that Emilia Bassano wrote at least some of them, and she is an unforgettable character. This book succeeds on so many levels — a polemic, a great piece of feminist AND historical fiction, AND it's a page turner. This is the book Jodi says she was born to write…and we think it's her best to date.

The technology known as CRISPR is considered one of modern biology’s biggest breakthroughs. It allows scientists to edit genes, similar to how you cut and paste text in a word processor. More than a decade after pioneering CRISPR, Nobel laureate Jennifer Doudna of the University of California, Berkeley, is applying it to big problems, like chronic disease and climate change.Marketplace's Lily Jamali recently met up with Doudna at Berkeley’s Innovative Genomics Institute. It's a cluster of lab stations, researchers and very loud refrigerators where CRISPR is used to edit microbiomes.
