Thursday Evening Presentations and Activities –

We typically gather on the first Thursday of the month at 7:00 pm.  Unless otherwise indicated, all evening presentations will be held in the Education Center of the Botanic Garden at Oklahoma State University.

Visitors to the Botanic Garden can access the grounds via the South Entrance on Rt. 51.  Better for evening programs, we will arrange to have the gate at the North Entrance (accessed by Virginia Avenue) open after hours.  Parking will be available in lot “parking A” on the above map.
