JustArts Gallery
Tulsa, OK
Elevating the creative voices of people confined to carceral institutions across the US.
Message
Humbly, I am an artist, poet, activist, abolitionist, lover of freedom, the earth and all of creation; citizen of the universe. My hope is that I may succeed in continuously creating beginnings where others see endings, opportunities to better my own state of being and those I encounter. May I become a light in a dark place and offer solidarity and strength by giving of myself to those caught up in the struggle to remain compassionate and human despite circumstances that may pressure us to become otherwise. Art is life.

JustArts Gallery (Tulsa, OK) is a not-for-profit, community-rooted project fiscally sponsored by The Third Space Foundation. We partner with systems-impacted artists across the country—most of them currently incarcerated—to host exhibitions and public programs that foster connection and challenge carceral narratives. Our space is a hub for collective learning, healing, and organizing at the intersection of the arts and justice. All proceeds from art sales go directly to the artists or their designated loved ones unless they choose otherwise.
JustArts offers strategic support to organizations, educators, and advocates working to build more just and inclusive arts ecosystems. With over 15 years of experience working with artists in prison, we collaborate with partners nationwide to uplift creative expression as a powerful act of resistance, identity, and possibility.
