For serious arts and culture lovers, a trip to The Depot begins as you enter the Santa Fe Train Depot, a historical building in Norman. The Depot holds regular musical performances that span all genres of music and presents poetry readings on the second Sunday of every month.

There are also art and creative writing classes available for those who want to dive into the arts themselves, with lectures, seminars, and demonstrations by local artists. If you prefer to just watch, then there are rotating exhibitions that feature everything from contemporary art installations to classical paintings. For visitors on a budget, many of the events held at The Depot are available free of charge.
