Cheers to Volunteers! – Sue and Lewis Nerman
Sue and Lewis Nerman have been championing the Kansas City Art Institute for many years. Most recently, the couple served as honorary chairmen of the 2017 Art & Design Auction, where more than $500,000 was raised for student scholarships. As a board member, Sue serves as an advocate for the college and her passion for art and design students is tireless. Thank you, Sue and Lewis, for your extraordinary generosity.
