COMMUNITIES + INFRASTRUCTURE

Guymon Achieves Oklahoma Film Friendly Certification
OF+MO is proud to announce the City of Guymon has achieved film friendly certification after completing the requirements for OF+MO’s Oklahoma Film Friendly Community Program. Administered by OF+MO, the Oklahoma Film Friendly Community Program seeks to help communities develop the necessary protocol and permits to attract and support film and television productions in their areas.
Film Friendly: On the Road
OF+MO is seeking to engage on-location with leadership among statewide cities and towns to promote the Oklahoma Film Friendly Community Program and learn more about each community’s structure and development plans.
In October, OF+MO had the opportunity to liaison with leadership representing the communities of Nowata, Bartlesville and Broken Arrow to provide valuable information on the overall film, television and music ecosystem in Oklahoma and how these communities can best position themselves for the future development of these industries in their regions. Many thanks to all of our participants and local hosts for welcoming us to their communities.

To schedule a visit from OF+MO or learn more, contact Yousef Kazemi at Yousef.Kazemi@okcommerce.gov or complete this event speaker request form.

FEATURED LOCATION
VFW Post 577
Tulsa’s VFW Post 577 has a rich history dating back over a century ago when the property was first constructed in 1920. During this time, the property served as a National Guard Armory for over two decades providing services throughout a number of critical events in history, including the Tulsa Race Riots. In 1946, the property was acquired by Tulsa’s Veterans of Foreign Wars (VFW) and has since served as a sanctuary for veterans to reconnect with the community while providing critical counsel and assistance, including specialized social, recreational and welfare programs. VFW Post 577 is lined with photographs and memorabilia honoring veterans across the years, and the two-story building boasts a large cafeteria, meeting room/auditorium and an outdoor deck.

This film friendly location previously hosted the production of “Sick Girl” in 2019, and we thank them for their support.

If you are interested in showcasing your community or featuring your location in the Oklahoma Locations Directory, please contact Yousef Kazemi at Yousef.Kazemi@OKCommerce.gov or visit our website for more information.
