Oklahoma Railway MuseumCactus Jack's 2026 Critical Hit Match Play Pinball Tournament
Hosted at Cactus Jacks Family Fun Center, this IFPA sanctioned pinball tournament features group match play qualifying that leads to PAPA style finals for the A division and a three strikes group knockout for the B division. The machine lineup will be announced later. Before qualifying begins, competitors receive Critical Hit cards. Players in the top half of the field by IFPA ranking get one card and all others get two, with quantities potentially adjusted based on the number of participants and available decks. House rules limit Insanity to one play per round and allow selection of any classic or modern machine. If a non‑tournament game is chosen, extra balls are plunged and games are otherwise played as set, with no card objectives unless IC is available. Qualifying uses Match Play software to create random groups of three or four and assign them to machines, alternating between modern and classics each round. Before each round, players may cast applicable pre‑round cards. A D20 roll sets player order, rerolling ties, and a roll of 20 grants the option to switch to another unused machine in the same category. Cards may also be used during and after a game when allowed. Scoring is 7‑5‑3‑1 for four player groups and 7‑4‑1 for three player groups. The fourth place finisher in a group earns an extra card when available, and more cards can be collected by completing machine bounties posted on the games. Groups are rebalanced after every round and any unused cards carry into the finals. Certain cards may be restricted at the tournament director’s discretion. At the end of qualifying, standings determine advancement. The top eight players, subject to change based on total entries, move to the A division while all others are eligible for the B division. The top qualifier earns three additional cards, second earns two, and third earns one. Any necessary ties for seeding are resolved with a single game on a randomly selected machine. In the A division, seeded groups of four play three games per round and the top two from each group advance, with some cards potentially disabled for finals. Ties are decided on a randomly selected machine. In the B division, players compete in a three strikes group knockout using Swiss pairings. Groups are typically three or four, and sometimes two. In a four player game the bottom two receive a strike, and in a three player game the third place finisher receives a strike. The last competitor without three strikes wins the B division.

HeartLocke StudioGalen Berry's Marbling Workshop - September (back by popular demand)
This two-day, hands-on marbling workshop begins with an introduction to marbling on paper. Participants look at examples of classic designs and learn their names, then watch a full demonstration of the process at the marbling tank. The class practices key steps such as applying alum to paper, mixing carrageenan, preparing paints, and creating foundational patterns like Feather, French curl, Peacock, Stone marble, Italian vein, Flowers, Nonpareil, and Spanish wave. Each person works at an individual tray using smaller sheets, about 9.5 by 12.5 inches, which makes it easier to try many designs. By the end of day one, most participants take home around 10 to 15 finished papers. The second day builds on these skills with more advanced patterns, including Thistle, Moiré, Fantasy wave, Antique spot, and Ripple. The class explores techniques such as overmarbling and masking, and also tries marbling on cotton fabric. Everyone prints one standard-size 19 by 25 inch sheet in a large tray, with time set aside for individual experimentation. By the end of the two days, students will have covered the essential aspects of marbling and can continue developing high-quality results with practice. Those most interested in fabric marbling benefit from learning on paper first, since the materials and methods are largely the same, with a few differences addressed in class. Students only need to bring a pen and paper for notes and, if desired, a lunch. All class supplies are provided, and a small materials fee applies. After class, there will be an optional supply table with paints, paper, carrageenan, alum, gall, combs, rakes, brushes, and booklets, priced the same as on the website, making it easy to continue marbling at home while the lessons are fresh.
ARTSPACE at UntitledSignal Convergence, Leticia R. Bajuyo
Artist Leticia R. Bajuyo collaborates with musicians and composers in a performance built around the theremin, an electronic instrument played without touch. Its tones are routed through three horn-like forms assembled from thousands of CDs and DVDs, each guiding the sound toward a shared point where frequencies intersect, mingle, and break apart. Within these sculptural forms, people feel sound as a shifting field of pressure rather than a single source, with passages of alignment, moments of distortion, and surges that approach overload. The discs function as both substance and symbol, their mirror-bright faces implying projection and volume while at the same time masking the mechanisms that carry the audio. The installation points to how perception is shaped by spectacle, expectation, and relationships as much as by the physics of sound.
Nona Jean Hulsey Art GalleryRay Wylie Hubbard
