About
To support parents and students during the upcoming Oklahoma school closure, Living Arts will be offering programming for a maximum of 30 Junior High and High School students each day, Tuesdays - Thursdays, from 9:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m. 6th - 12th grade students will be accepted on a first-come-first-served basis, and parents/guardians must agree to all guidelines on the first day of a student's attendance through a signed permission slip. Students that do not follow guidelines will not continue participation. Programming will include the presentation of various movies, as well as step-by-step art activities. Visits to other arts organizations within the area may also occur. Living Arts is not offering a replacement for the tireless efforts of our Oklahoma teachers, but rather a safe space for student creativity during this difficult time in public education.
