Built in 1936 in Stigler, Oklahoma, the Stigler School Gymnasium-Auditorium exemplifies the Art Deco style adapted for civic institutional use during the Depression era. The multipurpose facility served the community as both gymnasium and auditorium, combining practical schooling functions with the geometric forms and streamlined aesthetics characteristic of Art Deco design. Its presence on the National Register of Historic Places reflects its significance as a well-preserved example of early twentieth-century school architecture in rural Oklahoma.
