About Us:
The festival is free and open to the public who is welcome and invited to experience this legacy. Oklahoma Indian Summer is a 501c3 organization and is dependent on community support through commercial and corporate sponsors, fundraising and private donations.
Located at the Bartlesville Community Center, the annual festival is a cultural exchange which combines award-winning American Indian and Western art throughout the festival, a competition pow wow, entertainment and cultural demonstrations as well as many other special events in a family-oriented atmosphere. In celebration of 29 successful years of festival, the Committee is focused on tradition and innovation.
Friday and Saturday the festival opens at 10am and closes late night after the pow wow, both days full of activities and presentations. Last year also brought the return of Sunday festivities! Youth activities include Friday’s demonstration day for area school children and a youth art contest and show with a $1000 scholarship for Best of Show. Food concessions as well as arts and crafts vendors will be open throughout the festival.
