Long, long ago on September 7, 2012, Guthrie Green officially opened to the public. Since then, this old freight yard has become a community-driven urban park in the heart of Downtown Tulsa. Activities continue to be free of charge, thanks to the continued investment of the George Kaiser Family Foundation.
Over the years Guthrie Green has become known for its many events like Food Truck Wednesday, Art Market After Dark, Movies in the Park, concerts, fitness classes, and more. This year is the Green's 10th anniversary, and there's a lot in store for the celebration!
