Our Team

Kelly Kruse

Gallery Curator

Kelly serves the gallery by curating exhibits and planning events, documenting the work and stories of our artists, and working with our amazing volunteers.

Kelly is a multidisciplinary artist. She holds a masters degree in classical vocal performance from Indiana University and still maintains an active voice studio in the KC metro. She is also an accomplished visual artist who has been pursuing a studio practice since 2014. The Four Chapter Gallery has played a pivotal role in her own life as an artist, and she is humbled and grateful to be a catalyst in growing that legacy.

Gabe Coyle

Campus Pastor – Downtown Campus

After receiving his Master of Divinity at Trinity Evangelical Divinity School, Gabriel’s passion for the gospel in transforming and developing whole communities gracefully collided with his passion for the arts in downtown Kansas City.

In the spring of 2012, God called Gabriel and his wife, Allie to be the key entrepreneurs of Christ Community’s Downtown Campus. They are thrilled and humbled to be a part of connecting faith and art for the glory of God and the good of Kansas City.

 

Annica Anderson

Gallery Assistant

Annica is from a family of artists in Wichita, Kansas. Summers were spent sketching wildflowers in the nature trails down the street from her house, and weekends were spent wandering the halls of art museums. After design school and the wild world of creative agencies, the Lord opened the door to her own art practice making felt flowers. Annica sees the calling of artist as an opportunity to bring beauty to everyday moments, and restoration to a broken world. She is thrilled to work in a church to support artists in their creative and spiritual work. Annica is also a wife, mom, amateur macaron baker, gardener, and loves welcoming people into her home.
