Our 5th Annual Steamroller Event will take place April 30th, from 9-6. This is a day full of fun and supports local artists and vendors while providing a unique experience for our community.
The first steamroller festival held at ARTSPACE at Untitled in 2013 brought over 100 visitors to Deep Deuce with no advertising. In 2017, we reached out to local businesses and organizations to help us host a Cinco de Mayo mixology party the night before the festival, which featured live music, a meet & greet with the Big Ink artists, and food & drink from some of Oklahoma City's best establishments. With the help of our amazing artists, volunteers, sponsors, and collaborators we were able to produce an all-day festival where over 60 artists we able to print and display their work. In 2018 the festival continued to expand with over 100 participating artists and 24 sponsors. Students from our Mentorship Program, college students, and artists from across the state and region participated in the festival. This event continues to expand more into the Deep Deuce district, engaging more individuals in the Oklahoma art community. Last year we had about 5,000 visitors. There’s no doubt that the Steamroller Print Fest is getting bigger and better!
