About Bethany, Oklahoma: Painting the Mother Road

Bethany is located along the historic 1926–1985 alignment of Route 66 in Oklahoma County, sitting just west of Oklahoma City. Founded in 1909, the community developed into a classic Route 66 hub, providing travelers with the essential diners, motels, and roadside services throughout the highway's golden age.

Bethany proudly embraces its nickname, "Mural City," thanks to the numerous Route 66-themed murals that adorn its buildings, many of which can be seen along NW 39th Expressway. These large, colorful works of art vividly celebrate the spirit of the Mother Road, depicting vintage cars, iconic neon signs, and Oklahoma's rich travel heritage, making it a distinctive photo opportunity for modern travelers.

Beyond its vibrant artwork, Bethany preserves important historic highlights, including the graceful 1929 Lake Overholser Bridge. This steel truss span famously carried Route 66 traffic for decades. The Bethany Historical Society Museum also actively preserves the area's rich past. Annual celebrations, such as the Bethany Route 66 Festival, supported by the Oklahoma Route 66 Association, ensure that Bethany's connection to the Mother Road remains vital, blending art, nostalgia, and community pride in every colorful brushstroke.
