Explore the Tulsa Botanic Garden and be blown away by the natural beauty and peaceful atmosphere. The Garden covers a vast 170-acre site, with 60 acres dedicated to stunning gardens and facilities centered around a seven-acre lake. The remaining 110 acres conserve the native flora and fauna of the Cross Timbers forest and prairie. Whether you’re a seasoned gardener or just looking for a relaxing day out, the Tulsa Botanic Garden offers something for everyone. Stroll through the gardens and enjoy the stunning displays of trees, shrubs, perennials, and bulbs. With over 200,000 bulbs in bloom, the spring display of daffodils, orchids, and tulips is not to be missed. And if you’re looking for something extra unique, check out one of the many special events held throughout the year. One of the highlights of my visit was the art in the Garden. The handcrafted, one-of-a-kind objects seamlessly merge design and functionality, adding to the Garden’s rich tapestry of stories, tastes, and sounds. Overall, the Tulsa Botanic Garden is a must-visit destination for anyone looking to connect with nature and escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life.

The Tulsa Performing Arts Center is a hub of artistic and cultural exploration, where one can find everything necessary, experimental, traditional, and unique about the art scene. The center boasts two incredible performance halls that showcase a variety of shows and entertainment attractions, including the symphony, Broadway-caliber productions, national headliners, and so much more. The arts can unite people, foster understanding, and allow everyone to see the world differently. That's why everyone needs to have access to art, to create it, and to appreciate the art of others. As part of the mission to ensure that everyone has a place in the arts in Tulsa, they offer a range of community engagement initiatives designed to promote inclusivity and enhance the cultural experience for all.
