Underground Tree Arts Foundation is proud to present the 4th Annual Evergreen Youth Arts Festival, a free, family-centered celebration designed to give young people a space to create, perform, exhibit, connect and belong.

The festival will take place Saturday, October 31, from 12–6 p.m. at Lacy Park, 2134 N. Madison Place, Tulsa, Oklahoma, bringing together youth artists, families, performers, community members and supporters for an afternoon inspired by the legacy of Route 66.

The Evergreen Youth Arts Festival is built around a simple mission: uplift youth and the community through the arts. The event creates a welcoming environment where young people can express themselves, build confidence, share their creativity and connect with their community.

Evergreen Youth Arts Festival activities will include:
  • Youth live performances and music
  • Youth art exhibitions and opportunities to sell original work
  • Route 66-themed arts and creative activities
  • Horse rides
  • Bucking bull rides for youth and adults
  • Face painting
  • Painting
  • Bouncy houses
  • Games and prizes
  • Prize giveaways
  • Family-friendly activities and entertainment
Festival Showcases Young Talent & Recognizes Creativity

Young artists will have the opportunity to exhibit and sell their work, with proceeds from their sales going directly to the artists. The festival is intended not only to showcase young talent, but also to help young people recognize the value of their creativity and their ability to contribute to their community.

“Creating space for youth to grow, express and belong” is at the heart of the Evergreen Youth Arts Festival. Underground Tree Arts Foundation believes that art can provide young people with meaningful ways to use their imagination, express their ideas and build positive connections with others.

Now in its fourth year, the festival continues Underground Tree’s commitment to bringing art, creativity and opportunity into Tulsa communities.

Underground Tree Arts Foundation is currently welcoming youth performers ages 3–18, visual artists, food and non-food vendors, volunteers and community sponsors who want to be part of this year’s festival.
