On this site in 1905, the Arkansas Valley National Bank (AVNB) was first opened for business, Broken Arrow, Indian Territory.
Upon statehood, the Bank changed to a state charter and became Arkansas Valley State Bank (AVSB), and in 2008, AVB Bank.
From Indian Territory to statehood and present day, the Brown-Kimbrough family has demonstrated a commitment to community and exemplified the Bank's mission to serve, connect, and succeed together.
May this site always serve as an enduring reminder to all that will pass through these doors of the visionary founders and leaders of AVB Bank -- they have inspired and continue to inspire generations.
302 Property donated in 2020 by AVB Bank.
