In the weeks leading up to the 25th anniversary of the bombing of the Alfred P Murrah building, we remember the impact that the tragedy had on the city in many different ways.
In every society, tragedy, evil, death, and loss are recognized in many different ways. In Oklahoma City, we have a beautiful way of balancing the solemn remembrance of what happened to our citizens, with a healthy boost of hope and gratitude for all of the support we have given and received both 25 years ago, and still today.
We are so fortunate that we have local organizations that continue to include everyone from survivors, families of victims, first responders, volunteers, and media in the anniversary celebrations.
From musical, theatrical, and dramatic performances or special museum exhibits; to athletic events like the OKC Memorial Marathon, and inspired ballet performance, we have options for many preferred styles of reflection and healing.
Please join us for these upcoming events dedicated to the remembrance of the attack that changed our city forever.
