East of the space needle, at Oklahoma State Fair Park, stands the City Arts Center. This center hosts art exhibits and lectures, and conducts adult classes and youth art camps. It is addressed as 3000 General Pershing Blvd. as is open Mon-Thurs 9am-10pm and Fri/Sat 9am-5pm. (405-951-0000).

Displayed outside on the east side of the Center, this sculpture is constructed of flat steel bands curved and placed to represent a buffalo. The sculpture is mounted on two metal poles with various metal circles and pipes. One pole is supported by three metal legs; the other by four legs. The buffalo is painted blue and purple, and the support poles have red, yellow and green paint also.

The sculpture is standing on a concrete slab. There is no plaque indicating its name or creator. This area is open to the public whenever the park is open, usually from dawn to the closing of the last event scheduled at the park that day.
