It looks like we will have significantly more teams this year so the festival will be expanding. We are also offering some new opportunities for sponsorship and participation. On Friday, September 23rd at 6:00PM for the inaugural MVP p
ARTy, a kickoff to the 14th Annual Art of Barbeque, presented by Oklahoma Central Credit Union, at the home of the Tulsa Drillers, ONEOK Field! Come celebrate the end of summer with coworkers and friends and get a taste of what’s to come when our world-class barbeque cook-off contest, officially sanctioned by the Kansas City Barbeque Society (KCBS), kicks off the next morning.
Proceeds from the MVP p
ARTy will benefit thousands of children in the Tulsa area through the arts and cultural programming of the Arts & Humanities Council of Tulsa by
• Ensuring participatory learning opportunities in arts and culture for children in grades K-12 – through Community Arts Partnerships and Youth Arts After School.
• Creating a school climate of high expectation, discipline and academic rigor - through Harwelden Institute and Artists in the Schools.
• Enhancing cultural activities that are often removed from curricula due to schools’ funding challenges – through programs at our forthcoming Hardesty Arts Center, AHHA!
Along with the BBQ and beverages, we’ll give you a taste of some of our programs at the MVP p
ARTy. We’ll help you to appreciate the flavor that the arts add to the lives of at-risk and underserved Tulsa area children who now stand a better chance to stay in school and achieve academically. Your help does make a difference!
