What is ROAR?

ROAR is a group of scavengers and artists hoping to help be a part of a “greener” Oklahoma. We strongly encourage creative reuse/repurpose and hope to create a resource where artists, crafters, teachers, and whoever else, can find great inexpensive or even free items to creatively use for projects, etc. Our plan for 2008 is to operate a creative reuse center that provides low cost raw materials for creative purposes and workshops for adults and kids. We also hope to host more events and create a space where folks tight on workspace can come and use our facilities for a rental fee.

Currently, Rink Gallery has been kind enough to provide space for our project. It works great, since an antique mall provides a wide supply of unique and surprisingly inexpensive items that are perfect for artists, decorators, and set designers. They also provide an art gallery in the front which allows us to host recycled arts shows.


If you would like more information about our art shows, workshops, volunteer opportunities, donations, etc., please email me us at reartoklahoma@yahoo.com.
