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.

Take a stroll through Bricktown and downtown to hear true spooky stories of OKC! Stories include:

... the mysterious first death following the Land Run of 1889 and ghosts of Bricktown,

... hidden tunnels where people were said to born, live, and die without ever seeing the sun,

... and the most haunted hotel in Oklahoma!

Our walk will meet at the northeast corner of Sheridan and Oklahoma Ave (across from Bricktown Brewery) about 15 minutes before start times to get folks checked in. Each tour will last 80 to 90 minutes. Our route is all outdoors and follows public sidewalks, so it should be wheelchair accessible. Masking and vaccination are suggested.
