Step into a world of vibrant imagination with A Colorful Dream, an interactive exhibition by contemporary fine art photographer Adrien Broom. This family-friendly experience follows a young girl’s journey through a series of monochromatic fantasy worlds, each meticulously crafted to explore the emotions and symbolism of the full spectrum of the rainbow. Broom’s large-scale photographs, created without digital manipulation, capture the magic of these handmade sets, bringing fairy-tale-like landscapes to life.

Exclusive to the Fred Jones Jr. Museum of Art, the exhibition features a site-specific installation that reimagines black not as an absence, but as the presence of all colors. This striking addition invites viewers to contemplate color in a new way, blending fantasy and reality in stunning detail.

This presentation by Sam Noble Museum Fossil Preparator Kyle Davies explores Richards Spur, a fossil locality north of Lawton, which is unique in having the most terrestrial fossils species from the Permian time period of any known location on Earth. Owing to its special conditions, it is also known for producing many rare, small specimens and representing an uncommonly sampled upland fauna. Most fossil deposits represent lowland areas, where remains are more likely to get buried.
