HEAL CONNECT IGNITE

SPARK! is a nonprofit organization that employs the arts to strengthen the community of Oklahoma City.

  • We're not just another arts organization; we're a catalyst for change. SPARK uses the arts to spark conversations, foster reflection, and bring our community closer together.

    Here, we embrace innovation and welcome new ideas. We're dedicated to creating a space where artists from all backgrounds can thrive and collaborate, pushing boundaries and redefining what's possible.

    Join us as we work to foster individual and social well-being through the transformative power of the arts. Welcome to SPARK—where creativity ignites change.

  • We are professional artists who care deeply for the people of Oklahoma City, and we see many untapped opportunities for the arts to engage meaningfully with the public. We feel called at this moment in our lives to create work that honors and connects all members of our collective community.

    From our friends at Culture & Community Power:

    DID YOU KNOW: “Art and culture can meaningfully contribute to and help ground community power building efforts.

    For example, they can help communities connect to our histories and heal; help bridge across interests, generations, politics, race, and class; create systems of mutual aid; generate community pride and joy; and help people to envision more just futures. The presence of thriving arts and cultural activity that is of and by (not just for or in) a community is often an indicator of strong, persistent community power.”

    We’re all about Community Power, smack dab in the middle of OKC. Read more here!…and if you want to see OKC move in this direction, click that little pink “support SPARK!” button below and let’s do this!

  • We celebrate our land, our history, and our people through a creative, multidimensional lens that honors our complexity.
