Event held as fundraiser for portrait of Rockabilly queen
ore than 30 various Oklahoma Hall of Fame members came together to salute Rock & Roll Hall of Famer Wanda Jackson. The occasion was to raise money for a portrait of Jackson that ultimately will be placed into the Oklahoma State Capitol. In 2018 the Rockabilly Queen was given the extremely rare honor of being named by the Oklahoma Arts Council and Governor Fallin as a Cultural Treasure. It is the highest honor an artist can receive from the State of Oklahoma. Jackson was only the 13th person to be given the distinction and the first pop mainstream singer.
