Pick Of The Week

Mas Tulsa
July 19, 12pm
Guthrie Green, 111 Reconciliation Way

It's hot. Maybe we'll feel more sane if we imagine we're in the Caribbean? Mas Tulsa returns for a second year this weekend, with calypso, soca, and reggae music, a rum shaker competition, a costume contest hosted by Branjae, a parade, and more, hosted by the team at Sisserou's. —Alicia Chesser
