Our Mission

Located in Tulsa, OK, Bring Color Back is a 501(3)c organization whose mission is to reintroduce a more colorful, and brighter perspective for the youth (primarily 8th-12th graders) in the northern/western region through art of all mediums. We aim to accomplish this through two primary functions: hosting events for the community that highlight artists bringing positivity into the world and hosting “thinkshops” where we brainstorm solutions/expressions through any chosen medium by the student. 

It is increasingly hard to ignore the disparities between communities in Tulsa. North and West Tulsa specifically has seen a steadily increasing rate of absenteeism, dropout rates prior to high school graduation, and unemployment thereafter. When families are faced with higher rates of poverty, evictions and arrests, survival becomes more important than solutions. As creatives ourselves, we have found that a major relief from many of these ailments is having a creative outlet, or at the very least time to think and process. This is where B.C.B finds its place.
