In the fall of 1996, The Factory Antique Mall opened its doors. Nestled in the picturesque Shenandoah Valley, the mall is the largest antique mall (over 147,000 sq. ft.) in America-and still growing!

Leaders knew the plan had worked when then-Oklahoma First Lady Shirley Bellmon dubbed Jenks the “Antique Capital of Oklahoma.”

It is the home to more than 12 quality antique shops and malls, beautifully restored homes, Museum of Overbeck Art Pottery, cozy local eateries and a bed and breakfast. In the mid 19th century, the Whitewater Canal flowed from Cambridge City to Cincinnati transporting freight and passengers.
