History Center to host naturalization ceremony July 18

OKLAHOMA CITY — On Tuesday, July 18, at 10 a.m., the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) will host a naturalization ceremony at the Oklahoma History Center. Eligible candidates from across Oklahoma will take the Oath of Allegiance, the final step to becoming a U.S. citizen.

The event is free and open to the public, but registration is required. Estela Hernandez, field representative for U.S. Senator James Lankford, will be the guest speaker.

The Oklahoma Historical Society Multicultural Office (OHSMO) is partnering with the USCIS to co-host the ceremony. The OHSMO aims to develop programs and outreach initiatives to tell the story of Oklahoma’s diverse heritage and give voice to these historically underrepresented communities.

The Oklahoma History Center is located at 800 Nazih Zuhdi Dr. in Oklahoma City.

It is open to the public Monday through Saturday from 10 a.m.-5 p.m. Please call 405-522-0765 or visit www.okhistory.org/ for admission costs and group rates
