ذكذكتسئµ exhibits philanthropic bank’s art collection

OCU University’s next art gallery exhibit will feature a community bank’s collection of works by Oklahoma artists.

“Highlights from the Collection of NBC Oklahoma,â€‌ which includes selections from the bank’s , will be on exhibit in ذكذكتسئµâ€™s Nona Jean Hulsey Art Gallery from Sept. 22 through Nov. 15. An opening reception will be held from 5-7 p.m. Oct. 3.

NBC has a history of supporting artists and being a champion of arts accessibility. In 2003, the bank launched the NBC Oklahoma Artist Series, which annually commissions an original work of art from an Oklahoma artist. The piece travels to each of the seven bank locations and is reproduced as prints, posters and postcards available to customers. 

NBC has also commissioned public sculptures throughout the state and operates the Wigwam Gallery, adjacent to its Altus location, which hosts quarterly exhibitions open to the public.

Ken Fergeson, chairman of NBC Oklahoma, said he believes that art is vital to all communities.

“For the past 20 years, we’ve focused on supporting Oklahoma artists. We are pleased to share a selection of these works with the patrons of OCU University,â€‌ Fergeson said.

The gallery is inside the Norick Art Center at 1608 NW 26th St. Hours are 8 a.m. to 10 p.m. Mondays through Fridays. Admission is free.
