Drafts and Design is a partnership program among Tulsa Foundation for Architecture and Tulsa breweries that invites guests to participate in a wide variety of hands-on design workshops while enjoying locally crafted beer.
Mark your calendar, Drafts & Design takes place the first week of each month.From turning historic Tulsa photos into original works of art through hand-tinting to creating abstract punch needle wall hangings, Drafts and Design offers something unique for everyone.
Workshops include all necessary supplies and tools and are led by expert facilitators.
A variety of local beers may be purchased to enjoy during each workshop directly from the brewery.
Tulsa has a substantial Art Deco architectural heritage, springing from the wealth derived from the oil industry. Oil barons like Waite Phillips built new skyscrapers in the 1920s from oil monies using the then fashionable Art Deco style. The name Art Deco is derived from the French phrase “Art Decoratif”. Striking geometric shapes are one of its most defining aspects. That Art Deco style appears on city theaters, gas stations, utility company buildings, hotels and office buildings.
In this workshop, you’ll use art deco motifs from Tulsa and beyond as inspiration to hand sculpt an original art deco inspired decorative tile using air dry clay and watercolor paints. The result will resemble a painted terra cotta tile that is fit to adorn a jazz age building. All supplies are included and after the workshop you’ll take home an original decorative art deco tile to enjoy for years to come.
ON WORKSHOP DAY: Please arrive early to grab a beverage and get checked in. Instruction will begin promptly at 6:30 pm.
