TEEMCO Invites You to Chill Out at Acoustic
Thursdays at the Ice House Plaza at Myriad
Botanical Gardens
TEEMCO is bringing a series of super chill acoustic performances to
the Gardens, making the Ice House plaza the coolest place to be on
Thursday evenings in May, June and July
There are typically two performers
per evening, with each performing
a 45-minute set. Performances are
from 5:00 to 7:00 p.m. and are free
to the public.
The Ice House will be open during
the performances, serving tasty Nic’s
burgers and ice cold beverages, and
the Park House patio will be open
with great happy hour food and drink
specials. It will definitely be THE spot
to kick back and unwind after a busy
day.
T E E M C O ’s C E O , G r e g L o r s o n ,
believes strongly in giving back to
the community his company calls
home, and feels that adding a music
series to the Gardens is a great way
to do that.
“We love the beauty of the Myriad
Gardens and we love great music, so
it was a natural for us to put the two
together. We’re very excited, and will
be announcing two additional larger
concerts very soon,” Lorson said.
The Myriad Botanical Gardens is one
of Oklahoma City’s most beloved
public spaces, offering its visitors
a 15 acre natural escape in the
very heart of downtown. A halfacre children’s garden, an off-leash
dog park, restaurant space, splash
fountains, and paths for walking and
jogging provide guests young and
old with a place to seek solitude with
nature, or seek community and the
company of others. Additionally, the
Myriad Gardens offers a variety of
horticultural education programs for
adults and children.

Conser vator y’s unique design has
earned attention and praise in the
architectural community. It is 224
feet long, 70 feet in diameter, and
is covered by 3,028 sections of
translucent, double-layered acr ylic
panels. The Conservatory includes
13,000 square feet of plant display
area in two distinct climates: the
Tropical Wet Zone, which is at the
south end and is watered daily; and
the Tropical Dr y Zone at the north
end which receives water from April
t h r o u g h S e p t e m b e r, f o l l o w e d b y
drought from November through
March. Some 2,000 varieties of
plants and a 35-foot waterfall round
out the spectacular features of the
Conservatory.
