Saturday Stroll: Downtown Guthrie in December
Join us for a tour of Guthrie's historic downtown this December with a guided tour celebrating its remarkable architecture and festive holiday spirit. Starting at the iconic State Capitol Publishing Museum we'll meander through the charming streets lined with Victorian-era buildings, each adorned with seasonal decor, offering a window into the past and showcasing Guthrie’s architectural history.
Our tour guide, Ronald H. Frantz, Jr., FAIA will share stories of Guthrie’s founding, its territorial capitol days, and the enduring architectural styles that have kept its character alive.
The tour concludes with a festive finish at WanderFolk Spirits, where you’re welcome to join us for locally crafted spirits and holiday-inspired beverages. It’s the perfect end to a stroll through history and holiday cheer! (Cost of drinks are the responsibility of tour goers).
