Discovery Lab Next door to Gathering Place is the new Discovery Lab, a 50,000-square-foot children’s museum with interactive exhibits and programming space. Kids will love the hands-on activities in the museum’s state-of-the-art WorkShop, Science Lab and Little Lab. The new Education Center within the museum has five classrooms and serves as the STEM Center for Tulsa Public Schools’ pre-K through sixth grades. Don’t miss the merchandise shop and cafe. 3123 RIVERSIDE DRIVE | 918-295-8144 | DISCOVERYLAB.ORG
Greenwood Rising Greenwood Rising is a history center sharing the story of Black Wall Street before, during and after the 1921 Tulsa Race Massacre. From May 31 to June 1, 1921, white mobs destroyed 35 blocks of the city’s prominent Black community of Greenwood. Designed by Local Projects, known for its work at the National September 11 Memorial and Museum, the immersive Greenwood Rising experience begins with a video introduction. Then, visitors “cross the tracks” to learn about the history of the district. In one section, visitors take a seat in a “virtual barber’s shop” to better understand racist sentiments of the day. They also have the opportunity to make a personal commitment toward racial reconciliation that is added to a wall of positive messages. Admission is free through Aug. 4, but advance tickets are required. 23 N. GREENWOOD AVE. | 539-867-3173 | GREENWOODRISING.ORG
The Church Studio Legendary musician and songwriter Leon Russell purchased a Tulsa church in 1972 and renovated it. The building began life in 1915 as Grace Methodist Episcopal Church, one of the city’s earliest churches, but for a brief time it became the epicenter of a music scene that resonated well beyond the city limits to the greater world of rock and roll. The Church became a creative space for songwriters, musicians, engineers and singers. It also was the home base for Shelter Records, a record label started by Russell and British producer Denny Cordell. In 2016, entrepreneur Teresa Knox purchased the Church Studio. Today it is a recording studio, exhibit space, event center, audio engineering school, an archive for the Leon Russell and Tulsa Sound collections, and a shop for Church merch. 304 S. TRENTON AVE. | 918-894-2965 | THECHURCHSTUDIO.COM
Greenwood Women's Business Center Funded in part through a cooperative agreement with the U.S. Small Business Administration, the Greenwood Women’s Business Center focuses on supporting female entrepreneurs, and will eventually comprise 20,000 square feet inside the Greenwood Cultural Center. Services offered at the center, now in its first phase, will include counseling, mentorship, training and technical assistance to help women start or build their businesses. The Greenwood Women’s Business Center is operated by U.S. Black Chambers Inc. with the Greenwood Chamber of Commerce. Freeman Culver, president and CEO of the Greenwood Chamber, says 80% of business owners in the 100 Block of North Greenwod Avenue are women. 322 N.

The Oklahoma Museum of Popular Culture, located in the Tulsa Arts District, will showcase the creative spirit of many famous Oklahomans and the influence of those artists on popular culture around the world. The Museum’s fully immersive experiences will encapsulate TV, movies, literature, comic books, pop art and music, according to Meg Charron-Webb, OKPOP deputy director. The museum’s “Gold Room” will host concerts, panel discussions, banquets and interactive floor-to-ceiling digital experiences. There will be a small theater for film, a first floor “listening lounge” and a large terrace overlooking historic Cain’s Ballroom, as well as the Tulsa skyline. The projected opening is late 2022. 422 N. MAIN ST. | OKPOP.ORG

ATTRACTIONS Admiral Twin Drive-in The 1951 drive-in shows a double feature every night during the summer months or as weather permits.

A concession stand sells typical movie treats as well as hamburgers, hot dogs and chicken strips. 7355 E. EASTON ST. | 918-878-8099 | ADMIRALTWINDRIVEIN.COM
Buck Atom’s Cosmic Curios With his piercing blue eyes and rugged good looks, the 21-foot-tall space cowboy outside Buck Atom’s Cosmic Curios can’t be missed. Installed in May 2019, Buck is a “Muffler Man,” a large, fiberglass sculpture originally used as advertisement in the 1960s. His likeness now finds a home on souvenir items like T-shirts, magnets, coffee cups and stickers, which can all be purchased at the 350-square-foot gift shop along the Mother Road. Ninety percent of the shop’s stock comes from Oklahoma artists, makers and craftsmen, and all of it celebrates Tulsa, Oklahoma or Route 66. There’s also a unique selection of vintage tchotchkes and knickknacks — an ode to the “curio” part of the business. 1347 E. 11TH ST. | BUCKATOMSON66.COM
Creek Council Oak Tree The birthplace of Tulsa, this tree is where the Lochapoka Creek Indians kindled a ceremonial fire in 1836, using live coals they carried from their Alabama homeland over the Trail of Tears. Today, it is preserved as a park that includes an ethnobotanical garden and several commemorative sculptures.
TULSA FOUNDATION FOR ARCHITECTURE TOUR
Architecture hot spots Much of Tulsa’s downtown was built in the 1920s, when the era’s popular art deco styles lavishly celebrated the booming economy. Two nonprofits offer walking tours to explore the city’s art deco architecture and downtown network of underground tunnels: • Tulsa Foundation for Architecture: Themed tours are on the second Saturday of each month at 10 a.m. They typically sell out. Visit tulsaarchitecture.com/tours. • Tulsa Historical Society: Tours are on the last Friday of the month (except for November and December, when they are moved up a week to avoid holiday conflicts) and start at 10 a.m. Private group tours and selfguided tours also are available; visit tulsahistory.org. To reserve a spot, call 918-712-9484.

Named the Best New Attraction by readers of USA Today, one of TIME Magazine’s “World’s Greatest Places” and Favorite Park by readers of TulsaPeople Magazine, Gathering Place is 66.5 acres of pure fun.

Greenwood Cultural Center and the Mabel B. Little Heritage House
Tulsa Garden Center, Woodward Park and Municipal Rose Garden
In its glory days, Tulsa’s Greenwood District stretched for 35 blocks and was the largest and richest of Oklahoma’s more than 50 black communities — so wealthy, in fact, Greenwood was known as “Black Wall Street.” Shops bustled by day and clubs wailed blues and jazz by night. Today, the Greenwood Cultural Center and the Mabel B. Little Heritage House — the area’s only home built in the 1920s that still stands — present a permanent history of the district.
A wooded 44 acres in the heart of Tulsa, Woodward Park boasts flora and fauna that attracts nature lovers all year long. At the Tulsa Garden Center, you’ll find a Victorian conservatory and 3-acre arboretum. Linnaeus Teaching Garden is a demonstration garden that gives visitors a chance to improve their gardening skills.

Oklahoma Aquarium With eight exhibit galleries and more than 1 million gallons of water, you can see the many mysterious and wonderful creatures of the ocean that now make their home right here in Oklahoma.

Kendall Whittier Kendall Whittier, the area around East Admiral Boulevard and North Lewis Avenue, is one of Tulsa’s oldest shopping districts. Today it is a rapidly expanding artist community. Key to the revival was the rehabilitation of Circle Cinema, 10 S. Lewis Ave., opened in 1928. With $3 million in renovations, Tulsans Clark Wiens and George Kravis — with help from the City of Tulsa — saved Tulsa’s oldest theater. Now Circle screens independent and art films, and hosts film festivals and other events. Find colorful clothing, accessories and art at the Kendall Whittier Mercado, which meets May through October from 10 a.m.-2 p.m., on the first and third Saturdays. Every second Thursday of the month, the district hosts an art walk, currently with art in business windows, art drops and giveaways. In 2020, the Tulsa Farmers’ Market found a new home in the district and resumed Saturday markets in April 2022. VISITKENDALLWHITTIER.COM
