Your gift helps ensure these opportunities remain accessible to everyone.

Here's what your support can do:

$60 — Give a participant the opportunity to learn the essentials of Pop and Lock from a professional dance instructor during a Neighborhood Arts experience

$120 — Provide adaptive and sensory-friendly art materials that help make arts experiences accessible to all

$600 — Provide a month of visual arts classes at an OKC Parks Community Center

Whether it's $6 or $600, every gift helps remove barriers to participation and creates opportunities for our community to learn, create, and thrive through the arts.

Together, we can ensure equitable access to the arts all summer.
