Allied Arts

This weekend, one of our OKCityCard partners is celebrating their birthday in a big way.  Collected Thread is hosting Collected 3, a birthday bash like no other, this Friday and Saturday night in honor of its third anniversary.  Collected Thread is a handmade boutique that houses beautifully made items.  This store is committed to promoting the work of local artists and designers, with more than half of its merchandise made by locals here in OKC.

Here’s the great thing about this party – everyone’s invited!  They will give away cupcakes from Cuppies and Joe on Friday night during LIVE on the Plaza coffee from Café Evoke on Saturday (did I mention that both, Cuppies and Café Evoke are also OKCityCard partners?).  There will be T-shirt and tote bag giveaways both nights as well as a raffle for gift baskets filled with some of Collected Thread’s best stuff.  Plus, for every purchase of 3 items or more, 20% of your ticket will go to the Plaza District Association. 

Speaking of giveaways, we’ve got one for you right now!  The lovely Lindsay Zodrow, owner of Collected Thread, has given us this super cute heart sweatshirt dress to give to one lucky winner.  Entering is easy, just post your comment below and we’ll choose a winner at random on Friday morning.  The winner can pick up the dress at Collected Thread (1705A NW 16th St).  With a handmade dress by Fluffyco, the winner will be dressed perfectly for the party!

Since Collected Thread supports local artists by carrying their work, here’s your question: 

What’s your favorite thing about the local arts scene here in Central Oklahoma?
