Kansas City-based BoxKite, the moniker of musician Bob Stewart, blends a passion for jazz, experimental electronica and post-rock into rich atmospheres captured with a rock attitude and a jazz aesthetic.  The music of BoxKite can be floating and serene one moment, propelled and driving the next.  Jazz-inspired drums flow into electronic beats, horns and vibes interweave with loops and drones, field recordings commingle with synths and guitars while abstract voices and kalimba litter the soundscape.

Listen to  "Tales from the Mission" 
These oral history recordings are currently paired within the exhibition, "Everybody Eats When They Come to My House." 

Everybody Eats When They Come to My House is a curatorial exploration of the Charlotte Street Mission and the creative community in which it served. The Mission, as it was fondly called by Kansas City’s thriving artists, musicians, writers, chefs, craftsmen and new collectors, was a modest rental home owned by the University of Missouri, Kansas City. Artist John Puscheck played host of the Mission for nearly two decades in the 1980s-2000s. Affectionately remembered for its backyard cookouts, art shows, live music, dancing, dominoes, and art making, Everybody Eats When They Come to My House is a dive into the early community of artists that preluded Charlotte Street’s founding and Kansas City’s creative ecosystem today.

Throughout the month-long exhibition, Charlotte Street Gallery will be transformed into a backyard setting that will proudly display loaned artworks in an immersive installation. Additionally, Charlotte Street will be producing an oral history project to gather, share, and preserve stories from the Charlotte Street Mission’s artist community. These interviews and recordings will be edited and added to the media gallery listening station within the exhibition, and later archived in Charlotte Street Kemper Library. Friends and guests are welcome to complete and share their version of the show postcard and any ephemeral offerings that emulate the spirit and generosity of the Mission on the “Puscheck Potluck Table.” These items will remain on display through the duration of the exhibition.
Each track is a shared story or reflection about Kansas City artist, John Puscheck, the Charlotte Street Mission circa 80s-00s, Evil Monkeys, BBQ, KC music scene....

a flower is a token 
an exchange 
an offering 
a seed 
a letter 
a key
something we keep with us 
but which changes with us 
something meaningful, yet ephemeral

giving flowers is acknowledging
us being here together
we give flowers simply by being
listening
giving
by giving our self
being all of who we are
we give flowers 
every day 
because we might not be able to tomorrow
