Dark, moody & a little mysterious.✨ Alchemy Cocktail Lounge has landed in historic downtown Edmond.

Picture chandeliers, candelabras, vintage furniture and a lone disco ball sending shimmers across the bar. From owners Mical George and Liz Warren, the space pairs inventive cocktails (hello, Taylor Swift-inspired Afterglow 👀) with elevated bar bites from Robert Black of La Loba Cantina + Grill.

Armando Ortiz (The Creative Studio) has become one of Oklahoma’s most luminous talents in high fashion, whether it’s bridal wear, pageant couture or tailored looks for special occasions. Most of his bespoke creations never get credited online, but he is frequently booked out months in advance by a fiercely loyal clientele.

Ortiz is at work almost every day turning his clients’ dreams into reality, and we sat down with him to discuss how he got his start, his career trajectory and more.

Richard Ly ignited OKC’s Japanese dining scene with Awaji. Now he’s back for round two.

Kaizume, his new “neighborhood seafood dining” spot in the former Syrup space on NW 23rd, pairs Ly’s meticulous sushi with French finesse courtesy of co-chef Chris McKenna (Packard’s New American Kitchen). The menu swaps in unexpected twists like goat cheese sushi rolls, kampachi with pomegranate ponzu, and a show-stopping bone-in pork chop tonkatsu. Dark wood paneling, pelican portraits and a seaside-yacht feel set the stage for a dining room that feels anything but predictable.

Imagine that your home could greet guests on your behalf. 🏡

For this feature, we visit five homes around the 405 that are full of personality. Each reflects a unique blend of the owner’s style, the home’s architecture and the neighborhood’s sense of place. Each beautiful design seems to speak volumes. Some designs spur curiosity. Others cause us to pause, in awe. All make us want to kick off our shoes and stay a while.

Ready to come by and see for yourself? These grand entrances beckon us inside. Read the full feature in the September issue, online now.

The Oklahoma Opry is in for its best year yet!

With a permanent home on the Bricktown Canal under construction, the Opry is currently performing weekly next door at ACM@UCO — bringing family-friendly country, bluegrass and folk music to the stage every Saturday night. 🤠

Founded in 1977 by Grant Leftwich (who started it all in his backyard!), the Opry has grown into so much more than a show. Through programs like the Granville Community Music School and Strings of Valor, they're providing music lessons to low-income kids for 50 cents a visit and free guitar lessons to veterans.

🎟️ Tickets are just $20 (with discounts for veterans and groups) at okopry.org. Shows often sell out, so grab your friends and head to Bricktown to see why the Opry is Oklahoma's Official Country Music Show.

Five years ago, Paul Lewis was sculpting monsters and dinosaurs for his nieces and nephews, just for fun. That “hilarious” side project turned into a full-blown obsession with anatomy, history and the human form.

“I was terrible at it,” Lewis admits. But mentors, discipline and a move to Athens, Greece for seven months of nonstop studio time changed that.

Today, Lewis is up by 5 a.m., racing to get back to work. He’s currently sculpting two major pieces: a striking male figure titled “Transcendence,” and an 8.5-foot memorial honoring Mitchell Short, a beloved 20-year-old skateboarder who passed away in 2025 — a permanent installation soon to be unveiled at The Uncommon Ground in Edmond.

“I’m not interested in telling an audience what to think,” Lewis says. “I’m passionate about building spaces where people can reflect.”
