Tonight, we spotlight, thank, and honor the “ini” in ARTini.

And what exactly is the “ini”? We’re not just being cute. It represents the local restaurants that bring their talent, energy, and distinct personalities to ARTini Tulsa through 12 unique martinis and perfectly paired bites.

Alongside the art, “the ini” is one of the event’s essential tent poles. These local establishments compete for top mixologist honors while showing their support for local artists and the arts.

Each deserves a bright spotlight and our deepest gratitude. You brought extra flavor and helped make the night extra hot.

And it was hot. If you know, you know.

Please support these restaurants the next time you dine out:

Bohemian
Copaneazis
Daigoro — Judges’ Choice Winner

The Italian Ice Co. — People’s Choice Winner

Twelve unique martinis. Two hundred works of art. Hundreds of very cool people in some seriously hot looks.

Thank you, “ini”—you helped set our art apART.

How refreshing.

We have so many people to thank for ARTini Tulsa 2026. Building something lasting takes a community, and every person plays an important part.

Katie, we imagined, strategized, laughed, sweated, and built this together. Thanks for completing the picture with us and for being a true friend. You know how deep our appreciation and respect run for all you do.

Thank you, Events by KE. Tulsa is lucky to have you.

Just a quick note to say thank you.

We had a great time with you last night! But, it doesn’t end with the morning sun.

(Also, drink lots of water today 😉)

While the list of thank-yous is long, today we want to pause for four people who have been part of ARTini from the very beginning.

Kathy and Jeff Weaver, and Leigh and John Reaves welcomed ARTini—and all of us—into The Davenport Luxury Lofts three years ago. They opened the doors to their extraordinary home, shared our enthusiasm for what ARTini could become, and helped create memories and friendships that mean even more to us today.

This year, our gratitude carries a little more weight. We miss John deeply, and we are especially mindful of the generosity, friendship, and spirit he brought to ARTini. We hope this year’s celebration would make him proud.

A simple thank-you can’t capture everything we feel, but it is important to say it:

Kathy, Jeff, Leigh and John—thank you for believing in ARTini, for welcoming us so generously, and for being part of its story from the very beginning.

We carry that friendship with us into tomorrow night.

There’s a huge side benefit to bringing ARTini Tulsa to life: making new friends.

When an event revolves around more than 70 artists, you get more than amazing art. You hear stories. Stories become ideas. Ideas open new paths. And those paths often lead to something new for Tulsa.

One of our new friends is Matt Josef.

If you’re coming to ARTini—and you should—I’ll say only this: “Cowboy Superman.” You’ll know it when you see it.

We talked several times about ARTini, Arts Alliance Tulsa, and the way the event continues to evolve. He liked what he saw, and we gained a new friend, a brainstorm partner, and someone who believes—as we do—that together, we rise.

Matt expressed his thoughts on ARTini the way an artist would: visually.

This reel is entirely Matt’s work, created for us. It’s beautiful. It captures something we kept saying throughout the process: without art, the world would be nothing but shades of gray.

Matt, thank you for this.

It’s the quiet sophistication of ARTini.
It’s the anticipation.
It is art.

Artini Tulsa welcomes back HeartWerk.

Music is an integral part of the evening, and HeartWerk, with his moody house music vibe, will create the audible atmosphere from the first martini to the final work of art.

As you sip one of twelve distinctive martinis, sample the small bites paired with each pour, mingle with friends, and take in more than 200 works of art, you may feel as though time has held its breath—just long enough to give you a night away from it all.

And what should you wear?

You know that outfit you save for Europe or a larger city? That’s the one. Wear it.

Expect an inspired mix of eveningwear, expressive style, and personal flair. Art belongs to the artist, and dear friend, you are the artist of your style.

Most importantly, it’s summer. Feel comfortable, feel confident, and enjoy the evening.

Tickets and bidding information are available at artinitulsa.com.
