KidZone 2010
The KidZone stage was bigger and better than ever thanks to a partnership with Tulsa Children's Museum and the Tulsa City-County Library. Several national acts including Funky Mama, Lunch Money, Buffalo Fitz and Prairie Dawgs performed on Saturday while children created art projects and played in the park. As always, there were also be some very talented local artists coming back to perform on the KidZone stage.
The Children’s Hospital at Saint Francis hosted their Bear Clinic from 11:00am – 2:00pm on Saturday, May 15. Children were given a free teddy bear that they decorated and then took through the clinic for a “check-up.” The program is intended to ease any fear a child might have about hospitals and doctors.
A partnership between Tulsa Girls Art School Project, Inc., and Tulsa Transit brought “Art in Motion” to KidZone. The purpose was to raise awareness of Tulsa GAS, Tulsa Transit, and to inspire people to find art and beauty in everyday objects. The students at Tulsa Girls Art School turned a Tulsa Transit bus into moveable art by painting a vinyl wrap that will cover the 35-foot bus. The theme for this first “Art in Motion” bus is “Downtown Tulsa.” The bus was displayed on Sunday. The finished bus, with its newly decorated exterior, is in service after Mayfest and will be seen transporting riders throughout the city.
All KidZone activities are provided at no cost thanks to our sponsors The Children’s Hospital at Saint Francis and Williams. WaterWorks Art Center, YWCA Tulsa, tTownMoms and Tulsa Shock hosted activities at KidZone.
