Mayor's Vision Summit : Official Report

On July 9, 2002 almost 1,100 people gathered at the Tulsa Convention Center for “the largest civic convocation in the history of Tulsa.”

“A good thought from our traditional elders begins this way: Divine Creator, look down upon us and give us all strength as we work together in harmony and unity.”

Invocation for the Summit by Will Hill, Oklahoma Native American Artist
