Luxe Affair: Psychedelic Elegance

About

Join us for Luxe Affair: Psychedelic Elegance, Oklahoma Contemporary's stylish biennial fundraising celebration and one of the most anticipated evenings on the city's cultural calendar. 

Inspired by the boundless imagination and creative legacy of Wayne Coyne, this spectacular after-dark event celebrates the forthcoming exhibition Happily One Freak: A Wayne Coyne Retrospective and transforms Oklahoma Contemporary into a vibrant world of art, fashion, music, and self-expression. 

Guests will enjoy an unforgettable evening of bold fashion, immersive art, inspired cuisine, handcrafted cocktails, live entertainment, and unexpected experiences. The atmosphere is electric, and the experience is designed to reflect the creativity, individuality, and adventurous spirit that define both Wayne Coyne's artistic universe and the arts community we serve. 

Throughout the evening, guests will encounter immersive installations, live performances, interactive experiences, and opportunities to connect with fellow arts supporters, creatives, and community leaders. Blurring the line between celebration and performance art, Luxe Affair invites guests to embrace curiosity, creativity, and the joy of the unexpected. 

Proceeds from Luxe Affair ticket purchases and sponsorships support Oklahoma Contemporary's free admission and educational programs, helping ensure the arts center can continue to provide innovative exhibitions, impactful community programming, and accessible arts experiences for audiences throughout Oklahoma.


Attire: Fashion Forward | 21+
Interpret the theme through a fashion-forward lens with dreamlike color, sculptural silhouettes, and shimmering textures. Less costume, more couture—artful, polished, and unapologetically original.
