On April 11, 2025, during Norman’s vibrant 2nd Friday Art Walk, Uncanny Art House proudly hosted the University of Oklahoma’s Arts, Technology, and Culture undergraduate students for their capstone exhibition titled, “Echoes” transforming the gallery into a powerful reflection of student creativity and ambition.
This showcase served as more than an art exhibition—it was a vital steppingstone for student artists on the verge of entering the art world.
