First Friday Art Gallery with Anthony Corraro | April 3rd

Through powerful portraits created from loose dust, Anthony honors members of Tulsa’s LGBTQAI+ community whose compassion, resilience, and everyday acts of care help shape our city. Each portrait represents someone whose presence strengthens the fabric of queer life in Tulsa.

At a time when many in our community face uncertainty, this series reminds us that our stories, our care for one another, and our presence endure.

Come celebrate queer art, connection, and the people who make our community strong.
