This summer, Oklahoma Contemporary will bring a new kind of event to Oklahoma City: The Art of Brunch. The fundraising event – which will feature a chef-curated menu, bottomless mimosas, live art-making and a VIP tour of a sculpture park – will be held at 10:30 a.m. Saturday, June 17, outdoors at Campbell Art Park (NW 11th and Broadway, the site of Oklahoma Contemporary’s future home).
“The Art of Brunch combines local art with high-end food and drink to create the kind of unique experience metro residents deserve,” said Jayme Phillips, event manager. “This event celebrates everything exciting from downtown and beyond: We’re collaborating with some of the city’s best chefs, the area’s top artists and Automobile Alley businesses to create something entirely new and fresh.”
The 21-and-older event, held in conjunction with Guerrilla Art Park, will take place just outside the Oklahoma Contemporary Showroom. All proceeds will help ensure art exhibitions at Oklahoma Contemporary will continue to be offered free of charge year-round.
Interviews with the committee and Oklahoma Contemporary staff and photos can be organized through Director of Communications Lori Brooks (lbrooks@okcontemp.org). (May 25, 2017)
