Sip with SixPR and the Tulsa Press Club: You’re invited to celebrate 13 years of SixPR. Join us for drinks, light bites and a night to toast what’s next. Stop by anytime after 4 p.m. during the First Friday Art Crawl in downtown Tulsa. Parking is limited.
The University of Tulsa’s Office of Civic Engagement and the Tulsa Press Club present Candidate Conversations with Oklahomans running in this year’s elections. The forums invite Republicans and Democrats to present their cases and answer questions from local journalists before the Primary Election.
The events will be at the Lorton Performance Center on TU’s campus, 550 S. Gary Place. Candidates and their campaign staff will meet and greet constituents in the lobby of the center from 5 to 6 p.m. The candidates will then come on stage at the center from 6 to 7:30 p.m. to answer questions from local reporters. Tulsa Press Club President Jason Collington will moderate.
At TU, civic engagement is an institution-wide commitment that draws upon the power of education, community service, civic leadership and informing policy to create lasting impact and opportunity in Tulsa and beyond. The event is hosted by the Office of Civic Engagement’s director Melissa Abdo. Learn more about the office at utulsa.edu.
This event is open to the public and does not require tickets but the seating is limited. Parking is available across from the center.
