Adams Hall Murals, University of Oklahoma – Norman OK

Description

The Adams Hall project included a series of murals reflecting different aspects of Oklahoma business life by Craig Sheppard, a fine arts student at the time. The murals “illustrate some of the prominent industries in Oklahoma’s economy, including farming, stock raising, transportation, retailing, banking, oil, mining and smelting.”   (price.ou.edu)

It is not clear if the murals were funded by the PWA directly or by another New Deal art program.
