&lt;p&gt;&lt;font face="Helvetica" style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;Artists carve a woodblock that gets inked and printed live via steamroller onto at least one piece of washed muslin cloth. OSC-Press supplies 2' x 4' MDF at 1/2" thick; self-supplied blocks must be 2'x2' or 2'x4' and 1/2" thick (other sizes require prior approval). Optional laid-back carving sessions run 6 to 8 PM on two evenings before the event, and artists can opt in to help print on event day. Blocks must be dropped off before 6 PM on the Saturday prior.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font face="Helvetica" style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;Fees:&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

Load-in is 12:30 PM, setup complete by 2 PM, and vendors stay until at least 7 PM (breakdown and cleanup at 8 PM).&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font face="Helvetica" style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;VOLUNTEERS&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font face="Helvetica" style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;Volunteers can help with woodblock printing prep, setup, hospitality, steamroller printing (inking and layout, or clean-hands fabric handling), live mural assist, live music assist, and breakdown.

Topics covered include, but are not limited to: digitally mocking up your designs, how to price your murals, best practices for painting a mural, a recommended supply list, pros and cons of house paint vs. spray paint, job-site safety and organization, and vinyl mural design.&lt;/font&gt;

      <title>SEASAM (Southeastern Art Show and Market) (2 Oct 2026)</title>
      <description>&lt;p style="font-size: 16px; line-height: 24px; margin-bottom: 0px !important;"&gt;&lt;a href="https://ovac-ok.org/event-6824450"&gt;&lt;img src="https://ovac-ok.org/resources/Pictures/Oklahoma%20Arts%20Calendar/SEASAM_260817_HalfSheet_55x85.jpg" alt="" title="" border="0" width="178" height="275"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 24px; margin-bottom: 0px !important;"&gt;&lt;font face="Helvetica"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;The Southeastern Art Show and Market (SEASAM) and SEASAM Youth has been part of the Chickasaw Annual Meeting and Festival since 2005. SEASAM and SEASAM Youth provide a unique marketplace where adult and youth artists from federally recognized Southeastern tribes can flourish. The competition portion of the adult market includes a Best of Show award, Best of Division and 1st, 2nd and 3rd place awards in each category. Youth competition awards include Best of Show and Best of Division awards and judges' awards.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 24px; margin-bottom: 0px !important;"&gt;&lt;font face="Helvetica"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 24px; margin-bottom: 0px !important;"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font face="Helvetica"&gt;Caddo artist Chase Kahwinhut Earles is a potter whose work bridges traditional Caddo practices and contemporary design. A graduate of the Savannah College of Art and Design, Earles is helping revive a Caddo pottery tradition that nearly disappeared after the last known Caddo potter stopped working around 1908.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font face="Helvetica"&gt;Earles follows traditional methods throughout his process, digging his own clay, gathering mussel shell temper, burnishing each piece by hand and pit firing his work in open ground fires. After firing, he hand carves unique designs into every piece.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font face="Helvetica"&gt;His work is held in permanent collections at the Autry Museum, Oklahoma Capitol, Crystal Bridges Museum, Dallas Museum of Art, the Eiteljorg Museum and the Smithsonian National Museum of the American Indian among others. Earles’ work has earned numerous prestigious awards, including recently Best of Show at the 2025 Hushtola Art Market, Best of Show at the 2025 Cherokee Art Market, 2025 SEASAM Art Market and two first place ribbons at SWAIA – Santa Fe Indian Art Market.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

      <description>&lt;p style="line-height: 24px;"&gt;&lt;font face="Helvetica" style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;&lt;font style=""&gt;&lt;a href="https://ovac-ok.org/event-6797607"&gt;&lt;img src="https://ovac-ok.org/resources/Pictures/Oklahoma%20Arts%20Calendar/DA%20Flyer.png" alt="" title="" border="0" width="220" height="275"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;
This hands-on workshop introduces participants to the art and history of direct animation, working directly with 16mm motion picture film and projection. Over four sessions, participants will explore this unique cinematic language by painting, scratching, masking, and physically manipulating 16mm leader and found footage to create your own animated film. Each participant will receive over 100 feet of film to work on, an HD digital scan of their finished project, and the skills needed to continue their filmmaking practice.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
