Kemper Museum of Contemporary Art acknowledges it resides on the ancestral territory of the Osage, Kaw, and Otoe-Missouria, among other tribal nations forcibly moved to the region such as the Shawnee, Wyandot, Delaware, Potawatomi, Sac and Fox and Kiikaapoi (Kickapoo) nations. We recognize and support the continued vibrancy of Native communities and cultures today who continue to thrive, as well as the inherent sovereignty of tribal nations. We are compelled to serve and advocate for these communities in accordance with our public mission.

Kemper Museum acknowledges and respects the diversity of Native people connected to this land today. Many recognize the land and all beings who live within it as relatives. We acknowledge the earth we inhabit, the waters of the Blue River, the Kansas River, the Missouri River, and the plants, animals, and people supported by them. 

We acknowledge our responsibility to be good caretakers of the land we occupy.

"Consider Ted Habiger a triple threat. He’s a chef, restaurateur, and all-around flavor whisperer who’s been quietly (and deliciously) shaping the Midwest dining scene for years.

Not only is Habiger a James Beard semifinalist and Union Square Cafe alum, he’s the brains and palate behind Kansas City staples like Room 39 and now the artfully inspired Oil on Linen at the Kemper Museum.

When asked, he mentions he’s a big fan of championing local farms and mentoring up-and-coming chefs. He’s also casually redefining ingredient-driven cuisine from Missouri to the Yucatán. Dare we say Habiger’s plate is always full—and always interesting.

Naturally, and per the norm, we interrupted all of that important culinary brilliance to ask him four completely ridiculous questions. We hid the meat cleavers first. Bless." –Michael Mackie, The Pitch KC

Four Inane Questions with Chef Ted Habiger
