Art in the Square occurs every October in Tulsa at Utica Square shopping center. Over 90 local artists will showcase their works along Utica Square’s sidewalks. Come meet the artists and purchase their wares.

Utica Square is the perfect place for this event! I love to have breakfast at The Wild Fork before I begin. As you stroll down the tree-lined sidewalks, you can admire the different mediums of art ranging from watercolors, stained glass, pottery, sculpture, and woodturning. And if you see something that inspires you, stop and chat with the artist. Each artist is on hand to answer any questions you may have.

This free event celebrates art and the art of shopping.

Kids, be sure to check out the first ever Art Alley! Located in front of the Lolly Garden, you can get your face painted and participate in an art activity. Stop by the day of the event from 10 a.m. – 2 p.m.

Utica Square – Tulsa’s finer midtown Shopping Centre – The many Tulsa midtown neighborhoods that I love – Terwilleger Heights, Maple Ridge, Swan Lake, Florence Park – all share a unique place to shop: Utica Square.

Once considered the “outskirts of town,” Utica Square is an anchor of midtown Tulsa.  Built in the 1950s, Utica Square resembles a village shopping area than an obtrusive shopping mall. Trees and benches are scattered throughout and most restaurants offer sidewalk dining.

Referred to as “the Square” by locals, its charm and beauty are evidenced by the many clocks and the garden’s bronze fountain and statue. With over sixty shops, Utica Square truly provides Tulsa midtown neighbors one-stop shopping.

But, it’s not just the great shops that will keep you coming back to “the Square” – you’ll become a frequent visitor once you are smitten by its charm and home-town atmosphere.

And, “Art in the Square” is one of the many free attractions offered at the Square. See you there shortly after breakfast at The Wild Fork!
