Organized in 1988, the Oklahoma Visual Arts Coalition is a non-profit organization that supports contemporary artists across the state by connecting them to exhibition opportunities, mentoring relationships and robust networks of artists and arts professionals. OVAC promotes public interest and understanding in the visual arts, helping position Oklahoma as a regional hub of creativity in the national arts scene.

“Our grantees range from small arts organizations with one staff member to major museums, yet they all provide essential resources for artists as well as innovative platforms for critical cultural dialogue. Creative risk-taking is at the heart of this country’s most meaningful social, political, and cultural developments, therefore we are proud to stand behind artist-centered organizations that support experimental practice.”
Joel Wachs, President
