SAMPLE returns this First Friday with a multi-sensory evening of art, performance, and sound.
Featuring neo-expressionist painter Tyler James, whose work explores identity and transformation through color and abstraction; a live performance of Prodigal Son by multidisciplinary artist Parker D. Wayne; and an immersive harp soundscape by Julie Winkler, blending classical tradition with experimental, responsive composition.
Together, these artists create an environment that invites reflection, connection, and presence, offering a dynamic snapshot of Tulsa’s evolving creative scene.
