Bringing The Community Together

ADCT Events

For decades, the Art Directors Club of Tulsa has hosted events that not only bring the creative community together but also provide a powerful platform for creators to share their ideas and experiences. These gatherings have served as a space for education, inspiration, and meaningful dialogue—showcasing both local & national talent and fostering connections that strengthen our creative landscape. Through keynote speakers, Shop Talks, and community-driven initiatives, we continue to support growth, learning, and collaboration across generations.

Speaker

Each season brings notable guest speakers from the creative industry including designers, illustrators, photographers, art directors and more. They come from around the country to inspire our advertising and art community.

Shop Talk

A free event that gives our membership base and the Tulsa community an opportunity to join us for a behind the scenes look at inspirational places and people in our city. Previous Shop Talks have included tours, Q&A’s, and open houses. We use this time to get to know each other, share ideas, and keep things casual.

Graphex

An annual art and design competition featuring the best work of Tulsa creatives! Guest judges from across the country critique both professional and student work. Student portfolio winners are awarded cash prizes and winning work will be on display and celebrated during an elegant award ceremony.

Kern & Burn

An annual fast-paced design competition where designers, copywriters, misfits and creatives of all types band together to crank out their best work under the tightest deadlines. Teams must fight their way through 3 fiery rounds of audience banter and fierce judgment, using only the design assets provided to them.

Season 57

Even the fastest cars need to stop for gas and The Creative Pit Stop is where creatives refuel. It’s a place to slow down, swap stories, and load up on fresh ideas before hitting the road again. From steaming coffee to collaborative brainstorms, inspiration here is always served fresh and ready to go. With a nod to neon diner signs and roadside billboards, every session feels like a classic road trip filled with memorable detours and exciting views.

At its heart, The Creative Pit Stop honors every mile of the journey, whether paved in asphalt or sketched in pencil. It reminds us that the real magic happens in the laughs, the learning, and the connections we make along the way. Together, we celebrate the road and the destination, fueling up for the next creative adventure. Honoring the Road, Celebrating the Destination.
