Art in the Alley - Let's Paint! - Join Tulsa Artist Rosemary Daughterty as she guides us in painting new large-format canvases for display in Vinita's Route 66 Breezeway. She will have everything ready to go for painters of all skill levels to leave their mark. Rosemary has designed five custom canvases of Vinita's most iconic Route 66 landmarks in a paint-by-number format, just like those of Tulsa's skyline from her Midnight Art Factory. We hope you can join us for this free, fun, and easy activity with your family and friends.
