About this event
Please join Tulsa Foundation for Architecture on a LIVE/ZOOM Walking Tour of the Arts District!
TFA Guide Ellen Stanley will take us on a 45-minute walkabout in Tulsa's original downtown, with preservation advocate and TFA Advisor Marty Newman along for the ride. Tour-goers will learn about the Commercial Style of architecture in Tulsa during our rapid transition from cowtown to boomtown.
OLD TOWN TULSA: Arts District + Commercial Style is the first in a five-part weekly series of LIVE/ZOOM tours from TFA. Each week will focus on a different decade or style. Your Guide will be live on the street. As a participant, you can ask questions and interact with the host as you explore Tulsa from the comfort of your sofa. Put your feet up, and come on a walking tour with us!
TL;DR: Yes, it's on Zoom, but it's a live tour. NO, it's not another dry PowerPoint.

SUPPORT TFA: We've missed you! Your LIVE/ZOOM ticket purchase directly supports the nonprofit Tulsa Foundation for Architecture while we can't give group tours. We love Tulsa, and we know that you do, too. THANK YOU for helping us to keep our boat afloat. We’ve got big plans for new in-person tours soon, but in the meantime, this is a great way to reconnect and support our mission.
HOW TO WATCH: When you purchase a ticket, you’ll get a confirmation email from Eventbrite an hour before the tour that will include your Zoom link. Please make sure you have the latest version of Zoom installed on your computer, tablet, or phone. Zoom.us is the place to get it.
WATCHING TOGETHER? Of course we want you to watch with the other folks in your household! However, if you are purchasing more than one ticket and need separate login emails, please enter each email address during checkout. ISSUES? Email us at info@tulsaarchitecture.org.
WEATHER POLICY:Thunderstorms and cameras aren’t a good mix. If forced to reschedule, we'll email you the details at least three hours prior to the tour.
MEMBER VOUCHERS: 2nd Saturday tour vouchers do not expire, so hang on to them for future in-person tours. We hope to resume 2nd Saturday tours in August.
