Join the Weavers Guild of OKC for the Mindful Magic of Creative Doodling (session 1). Sat 2/22, 1-4 pm, $25 (includes all supplies)
.
This is a 2-3 hour workshop where you can unwind through intentional focus on a 3x5" card and a pen. You might think of this as doodling, but you can create designs that can be transformed into lots of other art forms. Join this class for session 1, an introduction to this fun, calming activity.

TONIGHT! #SpiritOfColor is an expression of identity and culture through the arts. It is supporting and advocating for diverse groups of artists and making a place for their unique perspectives. It is challenging the norm and having the courage to be true to one’s self. It is the culmination and celebration of the artistic careers of artists Mary Ann Moore, Edward Grady, Marty Avrett, Wallace Owens, Corazon Watkins, Rose and Melvin Smith, Michi Susan and Al Bostick. Hosted by the @oklahomahof museum.

Free Exhibition Reception, 5:00-7:00 pm, February 13
On display in the Tulsa-World | Lorton Family Gallery February 6 – April 30, 2020
Oklahoma Hall of Fame at the Gaylord-Pickens Museum
1400 Classen Dr.
Oklahoma City
This exhibition is an overdue honor for many artists of color in Oklahoma who, despite the difficulties minorities have experienced in our state’s history, paved the way for younger generations. Spirit of Color showcases works by nine prolific artists of color living in Oklahoma, whom we wish to honor for their long-standing commitment to the arts, community, sacrifice, and achievements. These individuals have participated in our communities as educators, curators and outstanding practicing artists, finding national and international success.

Inclusive practices and initiatives promoting diversity were not always welcomed in our communities and the same can be said for Oklahoma’s growing and thriving arts community. Our hope is that this exhibit will not only educate but also inspire all Oklahoma artists to continue making art.

Special thanks to our presenting sponsor @fowlerauto and the Oklahoma Arts Council.

Inclusion in Art is a non-profit visual arts organization dedicated to promoting racial and cultural diversity in Oklahoma’s visual arts community, through exhibitions, workshops, creative projects and lectures. With an emphasis on collaboration, Inclusion in Art seeks to continue supporting artists of color by connecting communities through socially conscious presentations that challenge the mind and embrace progressive thought.
