TPAC update Maximize your Giving Impact in 2025 As the year comes to a close, now is the perfect time to make your annual gift and take advantage of potential tax benefits.

Charitable contributions made by December 31 may be tax-deductible, helping you reduce your taxable income while supporting the causes you care about most.

In 2025, annual giving is now more important than ever! Giving during 2025 is not only important to those you give to but is more beneficial for you to give during the current year than in subsequent years.

“The Big Beautiful Bill” brings several changes to future tax years — most notably, it reduces the amount individuals can deduct from their taxable income.

Pulling forward your contributions or “bunching” them into 2025 is advantageous. One useful tool for this could be to make a large contribution to a donor-advised fund (DAF) in 2025 and then give to charities from the fund in future years.

As the year draws to a close, we invite you to celebrate the power of the arts and help us continue bringing creativity to life in our community. Your generosity helps keep the arts vibrant, accessible, and alive for everyone.

Inspiring Tulsa’s Youngest Audiences

I

nside the John H. Williams Theatre at the Tulsa Performing Arts Center, a hush falls over the crowd. The lights dim, the curtain rises, and hundreds of wide-eyed kindergartners lean forward in their seats, holding their breath.

“It’s a tradition we’re incredibly proud of,” says TPAC VP of Development and Engagement Sara Phoenix. “These experiences ignite imagination, build confidence, and help children see themselves as part of something bigger.”

For many of them, this is a first.

Their first time in a theatre. Their first time watching a story come to life before their eyes. Their first time feeling the shared magic of live performance.

A New Chapter for Seventh Graders

“I’ve never seen a show before!” one child whispers, eyes sparkling.

Another beams and says, “This was the best day ever!” These are things we’ve actually heard them say.

For the Tulsa Performing Arts Center (TPAC), moments like these are what it’s all about. Through our Any Given Child program, a partnership with the Kennedy Center and Tulsa Public Schools, every single kindergartner in the Tulsa Public Schools system is invited to experience a live performance at TPAC, free of charge.

18

INTERMISSION DECEMBER 2025

In 2024, TPAC expanded this mission even further. Recognizing a gap in arts access for middle schoolers, the center launched a brand-new production for every seventh grader in Tulsa Public Schools.

When a previous partner organization stepped away, TPAC stepped in, determined to ensure that no student missed out on the transformative power of the arts. The result was an original, locally produced performance that celebrates Native American stories told by Native artists.

The production explores themes of identity, cultural appropriation, and resilience, blending music, storytelling, and movement into an unforgettable experience.

“Students are completely captivated,” says Phoenix. “They see history, culture and community reflected on stage. It is powerful.”

After a resoundingly successful first year, the seventh-grade program is returning in 2025 with the same bold spirit and commitment to authentic storytelling.

A Community Effort with National Impact Tulsa is one of a handful of cities nationwide selected for the Kennedy Center’s Any Given Child initiative, a national partnership designed to ensure equitable access to arts education for students in grades K–8.

Locally, TPAC collaborates with 11 outstanding arts organizations and Tulsa Public Schools to

create a comprehensive pathway of arts experiences. By the time a Tulsa student reaches high school, they will have attended at least nine live performances.

These programs are offered entirely free to schools and students, but they’re not free to create. Each production requires artist fees, sets, costumes, and countless hours of behind-the-scenes work. That’s where the community comes in.

Giving the Gift of Art Through the Art Is a Gift Campaign, TPAC invites Tulsans to help keep these cherished programs strong.

A donation of just $20 sponsors one student’s experience; $60 sponsors three. A gift of $250 covers an entire kindergarten

INTERMISSION DECEMBER 2025

classroom, while $500 brings a full seventh-grade class to the theatre.

Every contribution, large or small, helps ensure that Tulsa’s children, regardless of their background, can discover the joy, power and possibility of the performing arts.

“The arts aren’t extra,” says Phoenix. “They’re essential.

They build empathy, creativity, confidence and connection.

Every student deserves that.”

A Future Full of Imagination As the curtain falls and audience bursts into applause, the smiles say it all. These young students leave the theatre inspired, their imaginations alive with stories and songs. For some, it sparks a lifelong love of the arts. For others, it opens a door to self-expression and belonging.

Art is, indeed, a gift, one that grows brighter every time it’s shared.

The Future Takes the Stage: Tulsa Performing Arts Center’s Brave New Vision Innovation. Inspiration. Impact.

The arts are not a luxury. They are not a privilege. They are the soul of our city, the rhythm that connects us, the spark that fuels creativity, and the space where hearts take flight.

Now, as Tulsa continues to grow into a hub of culture, technology and innovation, the Tulsa Performing Arts Center (TPAC) is taking a bold step forward. The Center has launched a transformational capital campaign to add cutting-edge space to our performing arts complex that will rival any in the region, a space worthy of Tulsa’s extraordinary talent and creative spirit.

“We stand at a pivotal moment,” says TPAC CEO Mark Frie. “This project isn’t just about bricks and mortar. It’s about legacy and ensuring the arts continue to enrich the social, economic and cultural fabric of Tulsa for generations.”

A Legacy of Art and Community Since its founding in 1977, TPAC has been the heart of Tulsa’s arts scene. Designed by world-renowned architect Minoru Yamasaki, the $19 million project was made possible through a historic partnership between philanthropist 22 INTERMISSION DECEMBER 2025

Leta Chapman, Mayor Robert LaFortune, John H. Williams of The Williams Companies, and by Tulsa voters who believed deeply in what art could do for their city.

Over the decades, TPAC has welcomed some of the biggest acts to ever grace the stage, from Broadway blockbusters to local productions, hosting more than 700 performances each year and welcoming hundreds of thousands patrons.

Yet despite this success, the building itself hasn’t seen major renovations since 2000.

The time for reinvestment, TPAC leaders say, is now.

Architect Minoru Yamasaki

A Vision for the Future The proposed TPAC add-on will redefine what it means to experience art in Tulsa.

A $79 million effort supported by the Improve Our Tulsa package and private contributions will mark the most ambitious renovation in the TPAC’s history. Chapman Music Hall will receive significant upgrades, including ADA updates, a sloped floor with new seating and aisles, pit wall improvements and acoustic improvements among other things.

But the centerpiece of this transformation is a stunning west-side addition: a glass-walled grand lobby opening onto a new outdoor performance space that seamlessly connects the Center’s existing lobbies along 2nd and 3rd Streets. The new space will feature: • An outdoor performance green • Restaurant and bar • Expanded restrooms • New ticket office

• Elevator and stair access to all seating levels • Pre- and post-show gathering spaces Construction is expected to begin in 2027, with completion in roughly 24 to 36 months. Once finished, the expanded TPAC will blend old and new into a unified, world-class experience, one that welcomes touring Broadway productions, local artists and community events alike.

“For every dollar spent on the arts,” Frie notes, “Tulsans gain nearly another dollar in economic activity. That’s a powerful return.

But more importantly, it’s an investment in who we are.”

Arts in Action Beyond its stages, TPAC’s mission extends deep into the community.

Each year, the organization invests over $1.75 million in education, engagement and access initiatives, curating 14 dynamic programs that touch every corner of Tulsa.

INTERMISSION DECEMBER 2025 23

Through programs like the Orbit Arts Festival and Brown Bag It, the TPAC provides paying gigs for local artists while filling the city with free, local entertainment. High school students discover their talents through The Discovery Awards and Next Narrative Monologue Competition, while senior citizens find joy and connection in the Broadway Senior program. Through venue subsidies and a 50,000-piece costume collection shared freely with partners, TPAC amplifies the work of local artists and nonprofits.

“The arts unify communities,” says Frie. “They improve well-being, spark innovation, and drive tourism.

When we invest in the arts, we invest in the health of our entire city.”

Strength in Numbers, Strength in Spirit TPAC’s new vision represents more than architectural ambition; it’s a promise. A promise that art in Tulsa will remain accessible, inclusive and alive for generations.

From kindergarten classrooms to community greens, from quiet rehearsals to standing ovations, the arts build bridges across backgrounds, across generations, across dreams.

As TPAC looks to the next chapter, it invites every Tulsan to play a part in shaping the story. Because when the curtain rises on this next act, it won’t just be an improved building, it will be a new era for the heart and soul of our city.
