An interactive circular steel sculpture at the entrance of Choctaw Landing will showcase Choctaw Social Dancers. The sculpture, designed by Choctaw Artist Gene Smith, will feature an opening for guests to “join the dance,” interact with the dancers, and delve into the rich history woven into each character around the circle. The resort will also feature original artwork designed by multiple Choctaw artists.

The opening of the $238 million Choctaw Landing resort will create more than 400 jobs in southeast Oklahoma and will have an estimated $95 million economic impact on the region. To explore exciting career opportunities, please check out Choctaw Careers.
