"The Plaza District is really becoming one of our greatest success stories" --City Councilman Pat Ryan
Many of you have had the chance to our studio in OKC's Historic Plaza District which we creatively named 1708. Over the past year or so, we have been telling people about what we do here not only as a specialty coffee catering company but also as a member of this rockin community. I think when you are in the midst of something good, it is hard to really see the success you have been a part of. I can tell you that it has been more and more apparent each week though.
Before I go any further, here is a video our friends and neighbors in the Plaza District - Midwestmedia & Marketing - did for the annual Urban Pioneer Awards. If you have never been down to The Plaza District, this will give you an idea of what we are about:
Midwestmedia & Marketing had the honor to create a promotional video for the Plaza District, which we now call home.
The video premiered at the 2010 Urban Pioneer Award honoring Steve Mason for his revitalization of Automobile Alley.
For more information about the Plaza District and the Urban Pioneer Awards see http://www.plazadistrict.org
For more information about midwestmedia & marketing check out our website at http://mwmediamarketing.com/ or hit us up on Twitter at http://twitter.com/midwestmedia
One of the best things about being in The Plaza - other than the array of awesome businesses that help make it what it is - are events like Live on the Plaza and Free Coffee Monday! Here are two short videos about it:
In Oklahoma City's Plaza District, every second Friday is LIVE on the Plaza, an artwalk featuring local artists, live music, deadcenter film screening, local retail shopping and much more!
Every monday Cafe Evoke Catering hosts Free Coffee Monday at 1708 in the Plaza District of OKC.

We believe in building a solid Oklahoma City Community. If you have not had a chance to visit us in The Plaza, come by! We'd love to have you over and tell you more about what we do as Oklahoma's Premier Specialty Coffee Catering Company but also about what happens in our district. Here are a few pieces of press on The Plaza for your afternoon coffee break!
I actually have no idea if any of you followed this blog from it's old address but if so, there is good news! We are in the process of getting the new blog up and running! We hired out the creatives at the Foundry Collective to make this happen for us and we are super excited to see it in full swing!
The new blog will be back at the old address so if you are reading through feeds, it will be back to live again very soon!
We also told you that you and your company could be the next host or sponsor of Oklahoma City's hippest monday morning happy hour (more like 2.5 hours but who's counting). You can get more information here by filling out the form. You can either sponsor an event here at 1708okc (the current location) or we'll bring Free Coffee Monday to your business and you can host it!
If you haven't been yet, we invite you! Check out this awesome post about Free Coffee Monday from Erin Miester of Meet The Press Pot:
Hosted in part by coffee caterers Cafe Evoke and supported by beanheads like Elemental Coffee Roasters, Free Coffee Monday seems like an awesome way to unite a vibrant-if-small and definitely growing segment of the caffeinated population of Oklahoma City. To top it off, this past week's offerings were provided by a soon-to-open bakery in Norman, OK, called Crimson + Whipped Cream -- the really nice folks behind which I actually met at the recent Coffee Fest Meadowlands. Far out, right?
(For you non-Okies: Crimson and cream are the school colors of Oklahoma University, which makes it the palette for the OU Sooners, which even this yankette finds impossible not to root for. Boomer Sooner!)
The events have been held at the communal-ish space at 1708 NW 16th Street in Oklahoma City's Plaza District (home to some really funky galleries, boutiques and a salon-cum–vintage shop), though Evoke is looking to recruit other hosts as well. When I rolled in at around 8am to meet up with my relatives, the place was already jumping, full of exactly the type of cool urban folks I'd felt were eluding me on every previous trip to town.
So awesome. So validating. Finally, a place for me to fit in in the Heartland... read more at her blog, Meet The Press Pot!
This is not an event all about Cafe Evoke Catering - this is an event about Oklahoma City! We'd love to hear what you think of the site and if you have any suggestions, comments or concerns!
The Future of A Thought Over Coffee: A note from Jason Duncan
Hi guys,
Wow, I was just looking at the "archives" on the sidebar of this blog and was thinking back to my first post back in January of 2005 - seems like forever ago! I wanted to thank everyone that has been following since that time. I know this blog's content has changed over the past 5 years and I appreciate everyone who has stuck with us on this journey Jenni and I have taken with Cafe Evoke and Cafe Evoke Catering.
The reason for this note is to let you know that things will be changing just a bit. We have been powering our blog via Blogger for the past 5 years and have not had any trouble. However, they are changing the way things work on their end and are no longer going to allow blogs like ours to be published the way we have been since the beginning. We have to make changes starting May 1st and have yet to figure out the best way to do this.
So, where do we go from here? Well, we plan on having a blog and we plan on keeping the content going strong! There is a chance that you will see an entirely new blog at this address in May as we are not sure we can save the archives, comments and old posts.
This being said, if it is a bit quite around here for a few weeks, please know that we are rebuilding and will launch a long overdue upgrade/update to A Thought Over Coffee!
