brooke rowlands: friday july 9th

For July we have an emerging local female artist that has made a new body of painted magnolias on colorful collaged backgrounds. Brooke has been collaborating with a few local artists through live painting recently, and was a part of our 1 year anniversary longboard deck show. These works are a delightful blend of urban with enough crossover appeal to hang in any home.

You can find out more about this 2nd Friday by visiting plazadistrict.org.

katie rake: friday june 11th

This month’s featured artist is one of our favorite locals! We have been following Katie’s work for a few years and attended a few of her shows around town so we are thrilled that she accepted our invitation to show. Her characters and animals are rendered in pastel hued watercolor with pen and ink wearing sleepily complacent expressions. The works she dropped off are much larger than anything we’ve seen her make and have hand-stitched embellishment.

Be sure to come out Friday June 11th from 7-11pm, and you can find more information about what our neighbors in the Plaza will also be hosting this 2nd Friday by visiting plazadistrict.org.

amanda & dylan bradway: friday may 14th

Every once in a while we make art too. So this month we are very exciting to have our own work on display! We will have brand new small works by Amanda Bradway and a variety of current works by Dylan Bradway! There might also be a collaborative piece to throw in the mix but we will see if it gets finished. To top off we will also be releasing a new Oklahoma inspired t-shirt with a great new graphic by Dylan, sure to be a new favorite.

Another highlight of the May Live on the Plaza will be a huge vintage clothing sale by Kitty Kat Vintage right in front of our store. They will have all kinds of great handpicked vintage clothing!

If you didn’t already know it is from 7-11pm and we are located here.

nick hermes: friday april 12th

We are very excited about our featured artist this month. Nick Hermes is a highly talented painter born in Norman, Oklahoma that combines a realistic approach with imagery that is very interesting and sometimes odd.

Come out to see his work this month during LIVE on the Plaza where all the business in our district open from 7-11pm with food, drinks and family friendly entertainment. Even though Easter has passed you can bring the kiddos out by 7pm for a Plaza Easter Egg hunt! Kids can search the district high and low for eggs filled with treats, and a few Plaza District merchandise coupons for parents as well!

cole cathey: friday march 12th

This month we are hosting the works of local artist Cole Cathey from Seminole. He works primarily with spray paint and stencil and the pieces are a little more urban than graffiti. Every business on the street is open tomorrow from 7-11pm for the Plaza walk so there will be food, drinks and family friendly entertainment.

We would also like to mention that Dylan and I are very excited about being honored with the very first annual Young Urban Pioneer award which will be presented during the Urban Pioneer Awards luncheon this spring! If you are interested in attending or sponsoring this event, you can find more information on the Plaza District website. This event is more than just a swanky lunch, it also helps the District raise money to continue to improve the district. If you are excited about the changes this area has seen in the past 12 years it would be great if you could consider a donation in any amount help our growth.
