TULSA, Okla. — Gathering Place events are back starting Friday.

The new activities have been “reinvented” to allow for social distancing and keeping guests healthy and safe.

“We are so pleased to be able to once again resume our programming,” said Tony Moore, Executive Director in a press release.

“Everything is so different this time around, as we reinvent our approach to programming with respect to social distancing. These family friendly events can all be experienced with a focus on guest safety; we look forward to sharing this calendar of events as Gathering Place eases back into the event space.”

Here’s a list of events:
