Green Country is a diverse area of lush, wooded hills, tallgrass prairies, small towns and big cities. Oklahoma Hall of Fame inductees from the 18-county region in northeast Oklahoma have contributed greatly to the state and beyond. This exhibit features the lives of eighteen individuals, inducted between 1930 - 2020, whose accomplishments are celebrated in a variety of fields. They are everyday Oklahomans, some from the smallest of Oklahoma towns, who pushed boundaries, made history, and continue to inspire generations.
