Arts and Culture

| The Tulsa Performing Arts Center,
occupies a half city block in Tulsa's historical downtown. The
PAC is the design of Minoru Yamasaki, architect of the World
Trade Center. It houses five theatres and a beautifully appointed
reception hall. More than a quarter of a million people visit
the Center each year to attend a performance from one of Tulsa's
seven acclaimed musical and dramatic companies including the
Tulsa Opera, Tulsa Ballet Theater, and a variety of symphonic
groups. The PAC hosts a multitude of cultural events through
the fall, winter and spring. |

| Another unique local downtown landmark
is the "Center of the Universe", which is located
on the arched pedestrian bridge, next to the old Tulsa Union
Depot (the future home of the Oklahoma Jazz Hall of Fame). To
experience the acoustic phenomenon of the Center of the Universe,
all one needs to do is to stand in the middle of the circle
on the arch of the bridge and speak. This part of downtown is
always fairly empty of people, especially at night, and is a
good place for urban exploration. At the bottom of the steps,
next to the train tracks, is a sewer grate which, as legend
has it, leads eventually to Tulsa's defunct system of underground
tunnels, which supposedly stretch throughout downtown. |
