How Oil Grew Tulsa: An Architecture and History Walking Tour

602 S Boston Ave

TFA is happy to offer IN PERSON tours again!Albeit in a slightly different way. Our Tiny Tours will be one-hour tours offered Thursdays at noon and Saturdays at 10 am. Groups will be small and the tours will only last an hour. All guests and guides must wear appropriate face masks. Tickets must be purchased in advance.<h2>Black Gold, Tulsa Tea...</h2>There is no doubt that the discovery of oil so nearby launched Tulsa into the metropolitan center it is today. On this tour, we will discuss the who, when, why, and how. Learn about the oil barons, their egos, and their vision for their growing city.This tour starts at Chapman Green, 602 S Boston Ave. (The southwest corner of 6th and Boston.) Meet your guide at the Gusher fountain - and don't forget to bring your mask. Your ticket price helps support our tiny non-profit and its mission to be the Voice of Tulsa’s Architecture.Thank you!!
