OKLAHOMA CITY (March 6, 2026) — The Oklahoma City Museum of Art (OKCMOA) today announced the 50th annual Renaissance Ball: A Golden Anniversary Celebration, which will be held on Friday, October 2, at the Oklahoma City Museum of Art from 6:30 p.m. until 12:30 a.m. This year’s black-tie gala will be chaired by Hannah and Stuart Hudson, active members of OKC’s cultural scene and co-publishers of the bi-monthly print and digital EdibleOKC Magazine.
Renaissance Ball, presented by Bank of Oklahoma, has served as one of the premier events in Oklahoma City for the last 49 years. The Ball is a critical part of the Museum’s fundraising efforts and provides a major source of support for exhibitions, film, and educational programs. This year’s Ball will draw connections between fine art, food, music, and conversation. The event’s 50th year provides the opportunity for reflection on the connection between the Museum and the Oklahoma City community.
“I agreed to chair the 2026 Renaissance Ball because the Oklahoma City Museum of Art has played such a meaningful role in shaping our city’s cultural identity and because this particular moment felt special to share with my co-chair and husband, Stuart,” said Hannah Hudson. “This golden anniversary is an opportunity to reflect on five decades of patrons, artists, and advocates who have believed deeply in the importance of the arts in Oklahoma City. It’s both a celebration of legacy and a statement of confidence in the Museum’s future.”…
