A Conversation on Solar Energy

Sun-Powered Oklahoma: What Utility-Scale Solar Really Means for Our Grid & Communities

Join Brian Webster and Josh Johnston of Sturgeon Energy to discuss the ins and outs of solar energy, and what it means for Oklahoma.

Brian and Josh founded Sturgeon Energy in May 2024 with a clear objective: Add one gigawatt of storage-backed solar energy to the grid. That is enough energy to power 200,000 homes, while avoiding 1 to 1.5 million tons of CO2 emissions per year.

Key Topics

- The lifecycle of a thousand acre solar project.

- Why do so many solar projects fail to reach construction?

- How do I know if my land is good for utility scale solar?

- Do we still need solar subsidies?

- How much solar is too much?

- Is Oklahoma allowed to export electricity?

- What are grid batteries? Are they necessary?

- What electricity policy keeps America the strongest for the next 50 years?

We look forward to a fun discussion, so bring all of your questions!

The Speakers

Brian Webster - Founder & CEO - Brian has extensive experience in founding and leading technology and engineering-focused companies. He is dedicated to environmental sustainability and is excited to lead Sturgeon Energy in achieving its mission of adding 1 gigawatt of solar power to the grid.

Josh Johnston - Founder & COO - Josh spent nearly two decades in various fisheries roles with the Oklahoma Department of Wildlife Conservation before transitioning to an executive leadership position with a local telematics company. He is excited to continue down the path toward environmental sustainability with Sturgeon Energy.

Basket Weaving with WildHERness

Basket Weaving with WildHERness

Join us for a hands-on exploration of the Cherokee double-walled basket, a traditional form known for its durability, balance, and striking visual appeal. While rooted in Indigenous craftsmanship, this class is taught by a non-Indigenous instructor who brings deep respect for the origins of the technique and a passion for teaching others the practical and artistic value of basketry.

You’ll learn to weave using commercially available reed — a great material for beginners — but will also gain insights into how these same techniques can be adapted using native plants like grasses and vines. This approach honors the tradition while equipping you with skills you can use beyond the classroom, with materials you gather yourself. What makes basket weaving so powerful is its versatility. It is a functional craft, rich in cultural history, and a canvas for personal expression.

Whether you’ve never woven before or are looking to deepen your skills, this class offers a thoughtful, creative, and grounding experience. All materials are provided, but food and drinks may be purchased on site at your own cost. You’ll leave with a finished double-walled basket and the knowledge to weave using both modern and natural materials.

Approximate duration is 4 hours. All skill levels welcome, but all participants must be 21+ due to the location of the event. All participants must complete a 2025 Liability Waiver, located on our website, to attend.

REFUND POLICY: no refunds unless you can find a replacement to attend.
