OKLAHOMA CITY — The Harn Homestead will host Oklahoma on the Move: From Hooves to the Highway on Saturday, June 13, 2026, from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. The family-friendly event will celebrate Oklahoma’s transportation story — from horse-drawn vehicles and early automobiles to classic cruisers and the legacy of Route 66.
Guests can explore a variety of vehicles on display, including Model T and Model A cars, 1930s-1950s Ford and Mercury vehicles from the V8 Club, muscle cars and private collector vehicles including a 1961 Chevrolet Apache truck and a 1966 Mustang. The Harn Homestead will also have horse-drawn vehicles on display, including its Surrey, which guests may step into for photo opportunities. Horse-drawn rides will not be offered.
