Join us for Currents of Hope, a benefit dinner for The Spero Project celebrating community, hospitality, and belonging.

The evening will feature an auction and an exclusive preview of Many Waters, a collaborative art exhibition created by Erin Shaw and The Spero Project, on view in the Nona Jean Hulsey Art Gallery, steps away from the dinner.

Currents of Hope supports vital programs for resettled refugees, including language classes, student support, employment services, and social services, helping make Oklahoma City a place where all neighbors can thrive.

When we share a table, we share more than a meal—we share hope, dignity, and belonging.

We recommend arriving at 6:00 PM so you have plenty of time to grab a drink, explore the artwork in the gallery, and browse and bid on auction items in the main event space before dinner and the program begin.
You’re welcome to start your evening in either the Nona Jean Hulsey Art Gallery or the Wanda Bass Music Center—the two spaces are located right next to each other.
