Mission

The Freedom Center of OKC, LLC endeavors to educate, empower and enlighten our nation to reflect on the past, present, and future of the Civil Rights Movement in Oklahoma, and to develop facilities and programs to effect the mission of the organization

990 for the year ended December 31, 2024

Program accomplishments

  • On December 10, 2019, the citizens of Oklahoma City voted to pass MAPS 4, including $25 million for the restoration of the Freedom Center building and the creation of a new Clara Luper Civil Rights Center.This five-acre campus will be constructed immediately adjacent to the historic building, transforming the city, state and nation's knowledge of our civil rights history and positively influencing the future of northeast Oklahoma City and our entire community. With exhibition and programming areas, a caf, welcoming center, outdoor and events spaces, this new campus will be an educational and community gathering place that honors the past, enlightens visitors today and empowers the next generation of leadership.Since the passage of MAPS 4, the Freedom Center board of directors has successfully raised private funds to restore the historic building. Removing the Freedom Center restoration from the MAPS 4 scope of work and paying for it with private funds allows us to get started sooner and retain ownership of the building. Our architectural team has grown to include Atelier Cory Henry as lead designer for the restoration, in partnership with Bockus Payne Architecture as the architect of record. Thunder Team Construction has been hired as our construction manager. Work is anticipated to begin in early 2022 and be completed by Fall 2022.
