hidden creatives is community-powered. Every contribution directly expands access, opportunity, and visibility for the hidden talents of Tulsa.
In 2026, this project was funded by freelance gigs the founder, Shayna Brewer, did on the side, $75 from her beautiful mother-in-law, Teresa, $100 from the talented DB Bowen (lead singer from Odie & I), and registration/studio tour pass purchases. Thanks to those contributions, Hidden Creatives is able to return in 2027!
If you love this tour and want to help, please consider donating to us! Your contribution helps fund the expensive backend costs, pay fair wages to those who help the founder, and ensure hidden creatives has enough funds to stay afloat next year!

A note from the founder, executive & creative director, Shayna Brewer:
So many people helped Hidden Creatives in unique ways for the 2026 tour.
When I didn't have the funds to rent venues for event gatherings, Tyler Gibbons, owner of Origin Coffee Company, opened his shop doors for free. He even hosted two very talented hidden creatives, Tay and Lou, during the tour.
Create Tulsa's team, Nolan MacDonald and Sam Hathaway collaborated on almost every Hidden Creatives social media post, ensuring a wider reach within the creative community.
Jesse McDaniel at SunRoad Co did the same, even though he was extremely busy building his own creative community for Tulsans.
At the very last minute, Jonah Hargrove, owner of Tulsa Clubhouse, was able to put an amazing line-up of musicians together. It was exciting to see so many performing artists enjoy being a part of the tour.
Trueson Daugherty, creator of The Parlour, offered to be one of the artists featured in the, "Five Things Artists NEED in Their Studio" series, and that video increased Hidden Creatives followers on its social media accounts substantially.
I recieved a $75 donation from my beloved mother-in-law, Teresa Brewer, and $100 from DB Bowen, lead of the band Odie & I.
And last but not least, it was NDA Haus' founder, Vondell Burns', who suggested to test and launch Hidden Creatives last February. That night, over 30 people joined us, voicing their enthusiasm and Tulsa's need for an event like this. It gave me the confidence I needed to move forward with the tour in May (love you more than space, Vondell!).
The 2026 tour wouldn't have happened without their support, and I'm truly grateful for their contributions. If you ever have the chance to work with any of them, I highly recommend each and every one of them!
