Originally a pioneer post, Hominy became a town on March 3, 1908.
Oil, cattle ranching and agriculture were the economic drivers of Hominy, which became a thriving business community.
There’s lots to love in Hominy: with its brick streets and iron Main Street lamp posts, Native American art gallery, pocket park that hosts a gardeners’ market in June/July and local crafters on Sundays in autumn, historic sites like the Marland Station, MKT Train Depot’s miniature trains, museum room and caboose, and the Fred Drummond Home, which reflects life in the 1910’s – 1920’s during the height of the oil boom.
Hominy is an ideal place for retail and restaurant entrepreneurs to locate. In our post-mall era, consumers are rediscovering small-towns and the unique experiences they offer.
With a beautiful municipal lake, Hominy Lake, and proximity to Skiatook, Cleveland and Pawhuska, Hominy is a great place to build a business!

Another important aspect of Hominy is the Hominy Indian Village. This village is on trust land with its own governing body of five Osage members. The Hominy Indian Village has homes, camps, a round house, a dance arbor and a community center. It is not open to the public, but is by invitation only.
Each summer, the Hominy Indian Village holds In-Lon-shka dances, which are spiritual in nature and by invitation only. It is important for invited guests to be aware that no photography/filming of the dances inside the arbor is allowed.
In October, the Hominy Indian Village hosts a Halloween celebration, which is open to the public. Check the Hominy Tourism Facebook page for date and time announcements of this celebration.
