Oklahoma Pork Council to Host Engaging Opportunity for Youth at the Oklahoma FFA Convention

The Oklahoma Pork Council invites all Oklahoma FFA students to help build a mosaic mural from May 6 to 7 during the Oklahoma State FFA Convention in Tulsa, Oklahoma.

Blayne Arthur, Oklahoma’s Secretary of Agriculture, declared 2025 at the “Year of Youth in Agriculture.” In support of Secretary Arthur’s initiative, the Oklahoma Pork Council has showcased several exciting ways young Oklahomans are thriving within the pork industry – including this unique booth activity for students to enjoy.

“We always work to make our State FFA Convention booth fun and meaningful,” said Kylee Deniz, the Oklahoma Pork Council’s executive director, “This very interactive mosaic experience is the one I’m most excited about yet. Students will truly get to ‘picture themselves in pork’ as they use their individual photos to create a special collaborative display celebrating the ‘Year of Youth in Agriculture’ together.”

The booth will include a green screen and a camera for taking photos. After their photo is taken then printed to color-match the needed mural square, students will be directed to place it on a large display building the mural.

“It will start with one two-by-two-inch photo. By Wednesday afternoon, visitors to our booth will get to see a massive ‘Year of Youth in Agriculture’ collage made up of more than a thousand photos. It truly represents how we are all an important part of the bigger picture within pork and our agriculture community.” Deniz said.

As a result of stopping by the Oklahoma Pork Council’s booth at the 2025 Oklahoma FFA Convention, students get the chance to celebrate pork’s place in Oklahoma agriculture and represent the next generation of leaders in this field.
