This new exhibition explores flag songs from five tribal nations in Oklahoma today, honoring the Comanche, Cheyenne and Arapaho, Choctaw, Ponca, and Wichita and Affiliated Tribes equivalent to the Star-Spangled Banner. The songs are connected to the honoring of Native veterans—past, present and future—and provide an opportunity to learn how music, language, community and service intersect.
"By the Dawn’s Early Light: Oklahoma Tribal Flag Songs" is made possible with support from Getty through its Museum Interpretation initiative.
Explore a monumental outdoor installation by Oklahoma City–based artists Denise Duong and Gabriel Friedman that transforms Campbell Art Park into a site of story, symbolism, and discovery. Conceived as a constellation of six sculptural forms, including a head, a hand, and four birdlike spheres, the work invites viewers to enter a world where order and chaos intertwine.
Carpenter Square Theatre presents The Minutes, a scathing comedy about small-town politics and real-world power by Oklahoma native Tracy Letts, author of August: Osage County. Nominated for the 2022 Tony Award for Best Play, the show unfolds at a city council meeting, exposing uncomfortable truths behind some of our most closely held American narratives and asking what we would do to avoid becoming history’s losers.
The production includes 10 performances over three weekends, with Thursday and Sunday performances added during the second and third weekends.
Showtimes:- Thursday, Friday, and Saturday: 7:30 p.m.- Sunday: 2 p.m.
