Ken Fergeson, Chairman of NBC Oklahoma, believes that art is vital to all communities. NBC actively supports artists and champions arts accessibility, demonstrating a commitment to enhancing the quality of life for all Oklahomans. In 2003, the bank launched the NBC Oklahoma Artist Series, which annually commissions an original work of art from an Oklahoma artist. This commissioned piece travels to each bank location and is reproduced as prints, posters, and postcards available to customers. NBC has also commissioned public sculptures throughout the state and operates the Wigwam Gallery, located adjacent to the Altus branch, which hosts quarterly exhibitions open to the public.
NBC first opened its doors in 1931 in Altus, Oklahoma, during the challenging times of the Great Depression and drought. Despite these obstacles, NBC was committed to investing in its communities, building relationships with customers, and providing support for their success. Over the years, NBC has expanded to serve customers in six locations across four cities, with its corporate headquarters in Oklahoma City. NBC remains steadfast in its mission to be a strong, secure financial institution, helping communities and clients across the state and nation.
Times have changed, but our commitment has not. For over 90 years, we have been a community bank dedicated to helping individuals and businesses thrive. Ken Fergeson stated, “For the past 20 years, we’ve focused on supporting Oklahoma artists. We are pleased to share a selection of these works with the patrons of Oklahoma City University. At NBC, we always strive to be People You Can Bank On.”
