Atkinson Heritage Center

The Center is now owned by Rose State College Foundation and maintained by Rose State College as a historic community resource and meeting facility. The home is maintained as it was built and designed in 1955, with original furnishings and decor, and is open for tours by appointment (no charge, donations accepted). The property has two conference rooms that can be rented at reasonable rates for meetings or other events. One is the house conference room, which seats about 30 people at two conference tables and has wi-fi access, with an attached kitchen for food staging. The property also includes the Atkinson Pony Barn, formerly the home to dozens of Shetland ponies, now an enclosed and updated informal event center available for reasonable rental. Each former pony stall contains a historical display from Midwest City, one of the surrounding communities, or a civic organization. The air conditioned barn conference room can hold up to 50 people at 6 round tables and includes a kitchen for food staging (no cooking on the property). The whole barn (conference room and stall area combined) can hold about 100 people. It's a great place for a family reunion, church social, bar-b-q dinner, or any special occasion!! (Sorry, no alcoholic beverages of any kind unless served by a bartender licensed by the State of Oklahoma.)
