FALL 2020
Thank you to all who participated in our 12x12 Virtual Fundraiser—the artists, sponsors, and art buyers. We truly appreciate your contributions to make this event a great success. Of course, we would have rather seen all of you in person, but we sincerely value your continued support despite the shift to a digital party. These funds are crucial in supporting Oklahoma’s visual artists through our Grants for Artists program as well as our annual Fellowship Awards.
Starting in October, we are offering free grant writing support for artists through Office Hours with OVAC’s Membership & Outreach Coordinator, Hayley Olson. These time slots will be one week before the grant deadline so artists may have their application reviewed and get all of their questions answered before submitting. Since OVAC staff doesn’t make the granting decisions, but are a part of the Grant Committee conversations, Hayley is a valuable resource and we hope artists will take advantage of this opportunity. To sign up, visit ovacgrants.org. We are gearing up for Momentum 2021 with our calls for Emerging Curator and Spotlight Artists! We are anticipating this iteration will still be impacted by the pandemic, so we are planning ahead to switch things up in a way that will give the community plenty of time to view the artwork safely. Instead of only a weekend-long party, the exhibition will be up for the month of March in Norman at Mainsite before heading to Tulsa’s Living Arts for the month of April. For more information and to apply, visit momentumoklahoma.org.

Sincerely,
Krystle K. Brewer Executive Director
