If you're looking for a blast from the past, the Guthrie Ghost Walk Tour in Historic Downtown Guthrie is a must-see. The architecture of the beautiful Victorian and Edwardian buildings will transport you back in time. However, beware of the area's reputation for ghostly encounters. The bullet holes in the Bluebell Saloon's ceiling and the Territorial Jail's shuttered windows are just a few haunting stories of heartbreak, mysterious happenings, and murder. If you're feeling adventurous, join the walking tour of Downtown Guthrie's most exciting and active sites. Along the way, you'll hear tales of hauntings, sightings, and the unexplained, and who knows, you may even encounter the other side. These gentle tours take about 90 minutes, giving you ample time to experience the sights and sounds of this historic district.
The Black Liberated Arts Center has grown and expanded its services. Initially created as a platform for music, literary works, and visual arts, it now includes a theater component. BLAC offers a variety of programs, including festivals, arts education, lectures, poetry readings, theater productions, presenting programs, traveling arts programs, and dance programs. Serving the community is their primary focus. Their mission to use the vehicle of fine arts to provide the total community of Oklahoma with exposure to the African, African-American/Black culture with a particular emphasis on educating Oklahoma's youth is truly commendable.
