2006 Art Contest
The artwork to be featured in the 2006 Annual Meeting Art Show will be composed of a wide variety of media, but each piece has one thing in common – an Oklahoma lawyer created it. And if you are an attorney who knows how to express your creative side, the OBA wants to feature your artwork too.
The art show is part of the OBA Annual Meeting, held Nov. 15 – 17 at the Crowne Plaza Hotel in downtown Tulsa. Original, attorney-created works of art will be on display throughout the meeting.
A panel of three local experts will judge the entries. First, second and third place designations will be awarded in each category, and the panel will select an overall “Artist of the Year” from all of the entries. The attorney named “Artist of the Year” will be requested to attend Thursday’s Annual Luncheon to receive his or her award, and the artist of the year will have his or her artwork displayed at the Oklahoma Bar Center in Oklahoma City for a year.
Art show participants may submit entries in as many categories as they wish; however there is a limit of two entries per category. Additionally, all entries must have been completed within the past five years and cannot have been awarded the top three places in any prior OBA Attorney Art Show. To participate, just simply register for the Annual Meeting and fill out the art show registration form. No extra entry fees — they’re included in the meeting registration fee.
The art will be on display Wednesday, Nov. 15 from 6 – 9 p.m. and Thursday, Nov. 16 from 11 a.m. – 2 p.m. Judging will take place on Wednesday from 12 – 2 p.m. No registrants will be allowed in the display room during judging.
We look forward to your participation! If you have any questions, please contact Roy Tucker, 2006 Art Show Coordinator, at (918) 583-6394, or e-mail artatty@okbar.org.
