Delivery and parking information for ART on Utica Square

ART on Utica Square
South Side of Ann Taylor Store
1948 Utica Square
Tulsa, OK


Saturday, October 6th                       Art work delivered:  8:30 am to 9:30 am
Saturday, October 6th                       Show is open from 10:00 am to 5:00 pm
Saturday, October 6th                       Pickup art work:  5:00 pm to 6:00 pm


Alpha Rho Tau (ART) will show on the South side of the Ann Taylor building along N 72th East Ave. We normally set up a table to receive the paintings near the tree at the entrance of the alley way between Ann Taylor’s and Miss Jackson's. That is the SE corner of the Ann Taylor store. You can deliver and pick up your paintings here. However, when you come to stay (work) you are requested to park in the area along E 22nd Place. This frees up parking space closer to the stores for customers.

A copy of the work schedule is attached along with maps of Utica Square showing ART display area and parking area.

1st Annual Ornament Exchange!


Join Us for Some FUN

We are starting a new tradition for our ART members;  our 1st Annual Ornament Exchange!  We are providing the Christmas bulbs and you are providing your talent to create fabulous and unique ornaments.

This exchange will take place at our Christmas Brunch!  It will be held at FIRST WATCH on Saturday, Dec. 1st and will begin at 11:00 AM. You will be able to order from their reasonable menu. Due to size constraints (only 50 spots)…it will be for MEMBERS ONLY.

We will have a sign-up sheet at our Oct.15th meeting and the Christmas bulbs will be available at the same time.  You will have almost 2 months to decorate, embellish, sponge, or even paint your ornament!

Hope to see you at our October meeting, signing up for our Christmas Brunch and Ornament Exchange.  This will be a super way to end a terrific year for Alpha Rho Tau!

Oversize Paintings Wanted For TCC Art Show

At the October 17th meeting of Alpha Rho Tau, President Crean announced the following change regarding the size of art to be entered in the ART Show to be held at TCC.


If you could send your entry Byrene Culver before October 15th, it would be a tremendous help to the Exhibits Committee.

Oversize Paintings Wanted

Due to many requests, we have changed our maximum size for the TCC Show.  To those of you who enjoy painting on larger canvasses, you now have the opportunity of exhibiting at this show.  One of the three paintings you enter in the TCC Show can be oversized. The others must fit the size limitation of no more than 30 x 36 inches, including the frame.

Remember your entry deadline for the TCC Show is at our next meeting, Oct. 15th.  Or, you can send in your forms and entry fees prior to that to Byrene Culver at 8006 S 75th E Ave., Tulsa, OK 74133.

So, grab your paint brushes and get ready for this terrific show where we will have a fabulous Artists’ Reception. We would like every member to participate in making this a success!
