Allied Arts

Allied Arts is proud to be the beneficiary of 10% of sales at The Shoppes at Northpark for Big Night Out on September 6^th.  That's right, from 5:00 to 8:00 pm, your favorite Northpark stores and restaurants are staying open late AND giving a portion of their sales to Allied Arts.  

That same night, Catalyst is hosting an art supply drive and giving you the chance to make an even bigger impact while you shop and dine.  All you have to do is bring an art supply to donate to the classes, camps and after school programs of Allied Arts member organizations.

The first 80 people to bring supplies will receive a free ticket to Science Museum Oklahoma OR a token for a free cookie at City Bites. How fun is that?  Plus, Science Museum Oklahoma will be there live doing some crazy cool activities with kids.  You won't want to miss it!
