SAMPLE is a relaxed, art-forward social mixer—your starting point before the First Friday Art Crawl unfolds.
Come in, connect easily, and let the night take shape. This isn’t a performance or a club night. It’s good energy, thoughtful art, and conversation that flows without forcing anything.
This month’s event features a focused exhibition by oil painter Spencer Plumlee. The room is soundtracked by Heartwerk, providing high-vibe, low-volume music that sets the atmosphere while leaving space for conversation and connection. Guests can also take part in a live screen-printing activation by SZRTAIL, customizing their own pieces on site with ASLUT icons and Tulsa-inspired motifs.
Light hosting by artist and socialite Rogelio Esparza Cervantes helps guide the evening.
Entry is reserved for Experience Tulsa newsletter subscribers.
Come through early. Stay as long as you like.
This is where First Friday begins.
