KERN & BURN is Tulsa’s only fast-paced design competition that breaks the mold. Creatives of all types band together to crank out their best work under the tightest deadlines, fighting their way through three fiery rounds of audience banter and fierce judgement in order to claim victory, cash money and bragging rights for a year.
Launched in 2018 as a fundraiser event for the Art Directors Club of Tulsa, it quickly ignited into an independent phenomenon, sparking buzz across the city and catching the attention of national design and advertising communities. Designed to shock the system, K&B is more than an event—it’s a cultural spectacle you have to experience firsthand to truly understand.
Your support and attendance continues to provide financial support to ADCT.
