WaterWorks Art Center - Grand Opening March 14!

In recent months, WaterWorks Art Center, part of Tulsa’s Park & Recreation Department, has undergone extensive renovation, including the restoration of its Annex Building, a cavernous 50x50 ft. hall to be used exclusively for the arts.

On March 14, at 5:30 PM, Mayor Bartlett, community leaders and art enthusiasts, will celebrate the reopening of the Art Center.

The civic art organizations in Tulsa have been asked to display works of art in the Waterworks Art Center especially for the re-opening. Alpha Rho Tau will be represented via art by Dolores Creekmore and Janie Crean.

With its renovation and expansion now complete, WaterWorks is a great resource for bringing outstanding visual fine arts experiences and classes to people of all ages, skill sets and interests.

Located in Newblock Park, just west of BOK Center, the Center offers 6,000 sq. ft. of newly-expanded and renovated classrooms that accommodate a great number of classes and workshops ranging from Oil Painting, Watercolor, and Pastels, to Pottery & Clay Sculpture, Fiber Arts, Metalsmithing, Italian Mosaics, Jewelry making, and other media.

Below is the invitation to Alpha-Rho-Tau, in case you might like to attend. Also following is a map with directions to the Art Center.
