PASEO ARTS ASSOCIATION
The Paseo Arts Association (PAA) is a non-profit, 501c3 organization that manages the monthly First Friday Gallery Walks, the annual Paseo Arts Festival, the Paseo Arts Awards and Paseo FEAST. Since our move in 2020, our expansion and creation of the Paseo Arts and Creativity Center has bolstered our visibility and our programming growth in the heart of OKC. We now manage three art galleries with monthly art exhibitions, a gift shop, a photography studio and 10 artist studios. The Paseo Arts Association hosts 30 art exhibitions by local Oklahoma artists every year, including five juried shows and art workshops on a variety of mediums. We also organize the Robbie Kienzle Artist Workshop Series, teaching professional development for artists.
