      <title>Look Again: Encountering the Art of Otto Duecker (12 Aug 2026)</title>
      <description>&lt;p style="line-height: 24px;"&gt;&lt;a href="https://ovac-ok.org/event-6781385"&gt;&lt;font face="Helvetica" style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;&lt;font style=""&gt;&lt;img src="https://ovac-ok.org/resources/Pictures/Oklahoma%20Arts%20Calendar/Untitled%20design%20(29).png" alt="" title="" border="0" width="282" height="275" style=""&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 24px;"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font face="Helvetica" style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;Look Again: Encountering the Art of Otto Duecker features more than 100 extraordinary paintings celebrating the artist's six-decade career in hyperrealism. An Oklahoma State University alumnus, Duecker transforms everyday subjects into astonishing works of art, from lifelike portraits and trompe l'oeil paintings to floating fruit, clothing, handwritten notes, and his iconic Drifters series.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font face="Helvetica" style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;Using only traditional oil paint and brushes, he achieves remarkable illusions that challenge perception and reward careful observation. This retrospective invites visitors to slow down, look closer, and discover the extraordinary craftsmanship and wonder hidden within the ordinary.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

After the sale of the house and her immediate family’s move across the country while she remained in Oklahoma, Allison found herself questioning what home meant to her: was it a place or the people who made up that space?&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=""&gt;&lt;font face="Helvetica" style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;Farm Studio International Artist Residency is located in a rural community in India. Residents stay and create in a quiet art centre and beautiful environment where they can develop their artwork free from accustomed distractions. Farm Studio residency provides three types of working spaces where artists can explore their art and ideas in the rural Rajasthani environment; at the Farm Studio indoor studios, the outdoor desert and farm environments, and in Andore Village. Relationships form between the artists coming from different countries and varied social, cultural, and artistic backgrounds. Many exciting exchanges and dialogues among artists take place, including scheduled artist talks, presentations, works in progress showings, final exhibitions, etc. Farm Studio also promotes and celebrates the local community’s artistic and cultural identity while also introducing art and culture of others’ (Indian and International guests) back to the community. This intercultural exchange broadens everyone’s experiences and fosters art appreciation.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>“Beyond Words” an Art Sale and Showcase Featuring Nancy Junkin (5 Nov 2026)</title>
      <description>&lt;p style="font-size: 16px; line-height: 24px; margin-bottom: 0px !important;"&gt;&lt;a href="https://ovac-ok.org/event-6872408"&gt;&lt;font face="Helvetica" style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;&lt;font style=""&gt;&lt;img src="https://ovac-ok.org/resources/Pictures/Oklahoma%20Arts%20Calendar/BancFirst%20Tower%20(1).png" alt="" title="" border="0" width="220" height="275"&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 0px !important; line-height: 24px;"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 24px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Helvetica" style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;“Beyond Words” is on view through January 29th, 2027 and opens with an artist reception on Thursday, November 5th from 5 PM to 7 PM at BancFirst Tower Underground Gallery at 100 N. Broadway Ave. OKC, OK. 73102. Junkin is best known for figurative and abstract paintings defined by a looseness of expression, line, and color. Her abstracts begin with a movement of line rather than a preconceived plan, a process she compares to starting a jigsaw puzzle: “intriguing, exciting, frustrating and with some successes along the way.” Her figures are just as loose, often painted without facial features so that each carries a kind of universal gaze. Color, whether faded or bold, cool or warm, textured or luminous, sits at the center of both.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 24px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Helvetica" style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;“In my studio, anything that can make a mark is fair game,” Junkin says. Her tools range from pencils and kitchen utensils to sticks from a pine forest and shells from the beach, and her elegant Japanese brushes to hardware-store finds. She builds the surface in layers, veiling areas and adding shapes and lines until the composition gains history and depth, often adding collage (words, scraps of paper, fragments of earlier paintings) as details emerge.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 24px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Helvetica" style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;Junkin came to painting midlife by way of a recurring dream in which she wandered her house and found an unfamiliar room. A dream interpretation book read it as the sign of “a quiet spirit waiting to be developed,” and she followed it with restless determination: painting daily, taking classes and workshops, studying with a range of artists, building a library around favorites such as Matisse, Joan Mitchell, Fechin, and Diebenkorn, and visiting museums in London, Amsterdam, Belgium, Istanbul, and across the United States. Emotion, history, weather, and the landscape of her home in the heart of the country all shape the work. “Painting is my way of expressing a love for life that is even better than a dream,” she says.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>“Pieces &amp; Poems” Solo Art Exhibition (6 Nov 2026)</title>
      <description>&lt;p style="font-size: 16px; line-height: 24px; margin-bottom: 0px !important;"&gt;&lt;a href="https://ovac-ok.org/event-6862636" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;font face="Helvetica" style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;&lt;font&gt;&lt;img src="https://ovac-ok.org/resources/Pictures/Oklahoma%20Arts%20Calendar/IMG_7620.jpeg" alt="" title="" border="0" width="275" height="275"&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 24px;"&gt;&lt;font color="#2B3245" style="font-size: 14px;" face="Helvetica"&gt;Come view “Pieces &amp;amp; Poems” the newest series from emerging artist Sara Whitehead. This exhibition invites viewers to reconnect with the dissociated parts of themselves by pairing each art piece with a companion poem that is often displayed in a sculptural way. As visitors move through the exhibition, they are welcomed by familiar themes of togetherness &amp;amp; longing while they are asked to reconcile the opposing themes of hypocrisy &amp;amp; pain. My work embodies this theme of reconciling opposites by intertwining painting &amp;amp; poetry, distilling my complex &amp;amp; ephemeral subjects into simple forms &amp;amp; phrases. Opening Reception at the Paseo Arts &amp;amp; Creativity Center during Paseo’s First Friday Gallery Walk on November 6th, 6-9pm.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=""&gt;&lt;font face="Helvetica" style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;“The USO is immensely grateful to the partnership of the Oklahoma City Museum of Art in support of our nation’s military service members and their families. With the unwavering support of patriotic communities and companies, like the Oklahoma City Museum of Art, the USO can deliver impactful programs and services designed to strengthen the well-being of our military community – completely free of charge,” said Jennifer Waters, Area Director, USO Oklahoma. “The USO and Oklahoma City Museum of Art are making a profound and lasting impact on the lives of the people serving and their families, ensuring they receive the appreciation they deserve.”&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>"Brave: The Strength of Soft Masculinity," presented by Four Mothers Collective (7 Nov 2026)</title>
      <description>&lt;p style="font-size: 16px; line-height: 24px; margin-bottom: 0px !important;"&gt;&lt;a href="https://ovac-ok.org/event-6905699"&gt;&lt;font face="Helvetica" style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;&lt;font style=""&gt;&lt;img src="https://ovac-ok.org/resources/Pictures/Oklahoma%20Arts%20Calendar/NOV-IG-2.jpg" alt="" title="" border="0" width="275" height="275"&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 0px !important; line-height: 24px;"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 24px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Helvetica" style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;Four Mothers Collective presents "Brave: The Strength of Soft Masculinity," curated by Hank Cooper, Opening Saturday, November 7 at Positive Space&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 24px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Helvetica" style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;"Brave: The Strength of Soft Masculinity," presented by Four Mothers Collective and curated by Hank Cooper, is a call to disarm the Western “manosphere.” In a time of intensified patriarchal power and violence, how might soft masculinity be understood through the lens of tribal matrilineal societies? Among many Southeastern tribal nations now residing in Oklahoma, masculinity can be understood through one’s spiritual responsibility to serve and sustain the greater community. The works in this exhibition illuminate forms of soft masculinity that disrupt Western ideals of hypermasculinity and cis-heteronormativity by centering vulnerability and emotion, shared roles and queerness, and the complex relationship between nature and nurture social behavior.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 24px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Helvetica" style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;Exhibit Artists: Wanageeska Williams, Britteny Cuevas, Rhiannon Schubert, Nathalie Standingcloud, Okcate Smith McCommas, Alex DeRoin, Carmen Selam, Santee Sioux McKay || Wičaḣpi Či’kala, Carmen Marie Richardville-Cummings, Bishop Denny, Jessie Haase, Marina Staubus, Jaime Misenheimer, Bradley Dry and June Carpenter.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 24px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Helvetica" style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;About the Curator: Hank Cooper is a queer citizen of the Cherokee Nation of Oklahoma and a graduate of Haskell Indian Nations University and the University of Washington’s Museology program. Their curatorial experience includes the National Museum of the American Indian, Peabody Essex Museum, Daybreak Star Indian Cultural Center, Henry Art Gallery, Museum of Contemporary Native Art, and SITE Santa Fe. Hank’s practice is grounded in social justice, community, and creating space for voices too often overlooked. As a queer Indigenous person, they are particularly passionate about supporting queer Indigenous artists and expanding representation within museum spaces.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 24px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Helvetica" style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;Four Mothers Collective is an Indigenous women-led art collective dedicated to uplifting Indigenous artists, creative workers, and culture bearers based in the Mvskoke Nation. Our work centers reciprocal care, community collaboration, and cultural sovereignty, creating space for Indigenous art and storytelling to thrive.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

She received her BFA in Filmmaking from the Kansas City Art Institute in 2018. She has historically been a jack of all trades kind of creative but is now focusing on her cute watercolor paintings. She loves drinking an ice cold Dr. Pepper in the morning, laughing with her friends, and long walks on the beach.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span data-ccp-props="{}" style=""&gt;&lt;font&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

Rooted in the 1.5-generation experience, his work examines the material, political, and digital lifelines linking the Oklahoma plains to Cuba. A software engineer developing systems for meteorologists, he draws from his background in technical data alongside his working-class immigrant perspective. He combines ready-mades, personal archives, and digital hallucinations to open up a dialogue about modern exile, memory, and watching home from afar.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span data-ccp-props="{}" style=""&gt;&lt;font style=""&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>Artist INC Express Oklahoma (19 Feb 2027)</title>
      <description>&lt;p style="font-size: 16px; line-height: 24px; margin-bottom: 0px !important;"&gt;&lt;a href="https://ovac-ok.org/event-6879973" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;font face="Helvetica" style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;&lt;font&gt;&lt;img src="https://ovac-ok.org/resources/Pictures/Oklahoma%20Arts%20Calendar/M-AAA-Website-Event-Calendar-Images-1000-x-400px-1.jpg" alt="" title="" border="0" width="688" height="275" style="max-width: none;"&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 24px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Helvetica" style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;A three-day virtual career development workshop for artists&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 24px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Helvetica" style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;Mastering a career as a working artist requires more than creativity and inspiration. For 17 years, Artist INC has boosted the careers of thousands of artists by providing building blocks for addressing business fundamentals and entrepeneurial challenges.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 24px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Helvetica" style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;In February, Oklahoma artists can participate in a free three-day fast-tracked version of the program, Artist INC Express. Open to artists of all disciplines, the virtual, yet highly active, version will explore the same core concepts for building a lasting arts practice. The virtual program offers access that is ideal for rural and other artists with limited access to in-person professional development programs.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 24px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Helvetica" style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;&lt;span data-olk-copy-source="MessageBody"&gt;Funded by the Oklahoma Arts Council and Mid-America Arts Alliance (M-AAA), the Artist INC Express workshop will be led by a team of experienced, working artists who guide participants through discussions, small group work, and hands-on exercises.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 24px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Helvetica" style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;During the workshops, artists will set goals for their practice, write about their work, and build a personal brand, coming away from the experience with an artist bio and statement, plus a resume or CV template. Participants will gain a community of peers that can offer support, resource sharing, and collaborative opportunities long after the program ends.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 24px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Helvetica" style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;Artist INC Express features three-hour sessions that take place over three days. Artists are asked to commit to the entire nine-hour workshop, as exercises build on one another and foster deeper connections among artists.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 24px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Helvetica" style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;"So worth it. I feel so empowered, seen, supported, hopeful and ready to launch what I learned." – Artist INC program participant&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="margin-bottom: 0px !important; line-height: 24px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Helvetica" style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;Day 1: Friday, February 19, 2027 from 6:00 p.m. – 9:00 p.m. CST&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
