Comments from Program Attendees

Orphan Trains to Oklahoma

"The program was well received by the people who attended and I personally found it to be not only

informative but very entertaining.” - Okemah

“The audience expressed great appreciation for the program. They felt it was both interesting and informative. While many had heard of the Orphan Trains most knew very little about

them so were pleased to learn about this little known piece of Oklahoman and American history." -

Muskogee

Let’s Talk About It, Oklahoma: Get Your Reading Kicks on Route 66

“Anytime we study history and people in history, it benefits us, our communities and our country.”

“This was my first visit. It was short but I had a good time. It allows people to get together and exchange opinions and

express different likes and dislikes, and idea. Hope to continue.”

History Through Music: Blues Culture in Oklahoma

“Excellent program. Came over 175 miles to see it!”

“Brought people of diverse backgrounds together to share a wonderful evening.”

“The more the community knows its history and culture, the better and stronger and healthier the community.

Miss Blues is incredible!”

Your support for the Oklahoma Humanities Council is of great value to us and it is our goal to make it rewarding for you as well. Therefore, we offer a Legacy Society. This society has been created to

thank our long-term supporters who have identified OHC in their estate plans.

One way that you can “leave a legacy” is by endowing any of our programs which are of interest

to you with a bequest. One of the easiest ways to do this is to name us as a beneficiary on your

retirement plan. By leaving a legacy, your planned gift would benefit OHC programs in perpetuity.

A special thank you to Ann Thompson and Martin Wing for “leaving a legacy” so that future generations will have cultural opportunities and experiences readily

available to them!
