Pick Of The Week

Opening Day at Tandy Pavilion
Saturday, May 9 at 9am
Philbrook, 2727 S. Rockford Rd.

When my kids were little, they used to pretend that the Philbrook gardens were an extension of our own backyard. Who was I to contradict them? Tulsa’s most elegant outdoor space just got a major upgrade with a new pavilion and patio, and it opens to the public on Saturday with all-day activities like a Giant Spirograph and a dance party with Hot Toast Music Co. —Alicia Chesser


Wednesday, May 6

Opening Day: Wednesday Farmers Market
8am in Kendall Whittier, 1 S Lewis Ave.

Queer Women’s Collective
5:30pm at Mercury Lounge, 1747 S Boston Ave.
