Every year, the Oklahoma Center for the Humanities creates wide-ranging collaborations that connect students, faculty, and community members in order to tackle complex challenges and ideas.  In the last several year, I have organized and lead groups that created exhibitions, conferences, workshops, theatrical shows and more.  On this page you'll find just a few of the 150+ such events we've created since 2014.
