Event Details
Now featuring: Clayton “CLAYDOH” Pelotte
One artist, many channels.
For our first ShopTalk of Season 58, we’re heading to Drifters and handing the airwaves over to local artist Clayton Pelotte.
Clayton “CLAYDOH” Pelotte is a Tulsa based interdisciplinary artist and musician whose work refuses to stay on one station.
Across visual art, music and multimedia projects, Claydoh moves between mediums depending on what the idea calls for. That range has made him a familiar signal in Tulsa’s creative community, with a practice shaped as much by experimentation as any single discipline.
For our first ShopTalk of Season 58, we’re meeting him at Drifter Theatre to get closer to the work, the process and what happens when you stop worrying about picking one creative lane.
Come see what he’s making, hear what he’s listening to and talk about how all those different channels end up sounding like the same artist.
Free and open to the public.

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.
