Pick Of The Week
First Friday Art Crawl x Record Club: Street Art Edition
August 1, 6pm
Guthrie Green, 111 Reconciliation Way
This edition of Record Club dives into the global language of street art, from Banksy to RETNA to REVOKE. Tulsa’s own Clean Hands Army will turn Guthrie Green into a living canvas with a live, collaborative mural experience. DJ Doc Free will be spinning deep cuts from hip-hop icons like Madlib, MF DOOM, and Peanut Butter Wolf—the soundtrack behind modern muralism. The Guthrie Green vendor market will be out in full force for First Friday, too, along with exhibit openings at just about all of the Arts District galleries.
