OKLAHOMA STATE CAPITOL Native American artist and former state politician Enoch Kelly Haney crafted a 17-foot tall, 6,000-pound bronze sculpture titled “The Guardian” that sits atop the State Capitol. Along with Haney’s statue, the state’s capitol building features a classic architectural style, stunning rotunda, over 100 art exhibits, a museum and breathtaking murals. Oklahoma’s capitol is not just a building for the state’s politics; it’s a work of art.

PLAZA WALLS Once a year, the Plaza District allows a rotating group of muralists to turn the Plaza alleyways into a spectacular outdoor art gallery with incredible murals displayed directly on the alley walls. Artists are given almost complete creative freedom, making for an eclectic mix of themes, colors, subjects and styles.
