About the competition: The Raymore Arts Commission presented its first art competition in 2024. The Power of Perspectives art competition invites artists from around the area to share the way they see, imagine and experience the world through their artistic talents. The spirit of this event is to bring artists and people together as a community while respecting the individuality and perspective that each person brings to the table. The Arts Commission firmly believes art is vital to our quality of life and our goal is to help members of our community experience and appreciate the arts. The power of perspectives can be unassuming, but when people come together with respect and admiration for each other’s differences, its power is endless.
