Activities
Art Partners
Prairie Arts Center is committed to developing and supporting interest in and exploration of the visual arts. As a part of that commitment, we offer students aged 13 and older the opportunity to partner with a working artist in our community for instruction and guidance here at the center. If you or your child have an interest or talent in a particular medium, we can help find a mentor that is knowledgable and skilled in that same medium. This includes drawing, painting, ceramics, printing, digital photography, fiber arts, and graphic design. To begin, we offer an Introductory Art Partner Package to establish rapport and basic skills. After that class is completed, students can return for study as they wish. Scheduling would be contingent on artist and student availability.

Professional Development for Oklahoma Educators
Prairie Arts Center partners with the OSU Museum of Art, the OSU Museum of Art Advocates, and OSU's Department of Art, Graphic Design, and Art History to host free professional development workshops and retreats for Oklahoma educators on a variety of special topics. We strive to provide regional K-12 educators with the pedagogical tools, inspiration, resources, and support to bring elevated visual art curriculum into their classrooms. It is also our hope to give teachers the opportunity to relax, reflect, and learn from one another. Be on the look out for our next professional development workshop!
