From the first turn of a page, readers have been captivated by the heroes and villains that come to life in panels covered in action and adventure.  Printed in our memories, the illustrated characters that inspired us are timeless reminders of our shared stories. These carefully collected issues have captured our imagination, becoming our most cherished Limited Edition comics. 

Paw Prints & Portraits is an exhibition celebrating our furry friends and the artists who make their living from their portraiture. Illustrations, painting, and sculptures made with love, and a touch of fur, decorate our homes and our hearts. Every perfectly wispy whisker, spectacular spots, or twitchy tails captured by an artist speaks volumes to the love we share for man's best friends.

The Firehouse's Children's Summer Art Program (CSAP) provides art education camps for children ages 5-14 throughout the summer months. During these camps, students learn about a variety of mediums such as painting, drawing, ceramics, collage, and mixed media. At the end of the summer, the Children's Summer Art Show presents one work by each student who participated in these art camps. This is a unique opportunity for students to see their artwork displayed in a professional studio space, and for the community to celebrate the students' artistic efforts.

The Firehouse Art Center, in partnership with SOONERCON, is proud to display the work of cosplayers in Making Legends: Cosplay Culture, opening Friday, May 17th, 2024. A collaborative exhibition featuring ten artists from across the country, Making Legends celebrates over a thousand hours of individual artistry to capture the legends we love.

Making Legends: Cosplay Culture celebrates the artist within us all. From a galaxy far far away to a comfortable hole in the ground, the art of cosplay brings characters from media and pop culture to life through hand-made costumes and props. Cosplayers are rarely professional costume designers; they are accountants, parents, and teachers whose passion for creation inspires them to celebrate the books, movies, and video games we all know and love. They become an elven princess, a foul-tempered monarch, or a soldier of the empire. Cosplayers push the boundaries of their own creativity to go where no one has gone before!

On display from February 16th - April 30th, Brewing Design is a collaborative exhibition between the Firehouse Art Center and the Oklahoma Craft Brewers Association, co-curated by Lisa McIlroy.

Oklahoma Craft Brewers Association works to strengthen and unify the Oklahoma brewing industry, which in turn provides design opportunities for artists.
