OUR ANNUAL SUPPORTERS
COLLECTOR MEMBERS
The Community Supported Artist Program is a cornerstone of OVAC's commitment to enabling the Oklahoma arts ecosystem. As a part of OVAC's Collector Membership, OVAC Member Artists receive funding to create commissioned pieces for Collector Members. By participating in this initiative, artists receive the backing they need to push creative boundaries and contribute meaningfully to Oklahoma's rich artistic tapestry. It's more than just a program—it's a collaborative effort that empowers artists and local collectors to enhance the cultural landscape of Oklahoma. |
