The museum covers the history of the Illinois National Guard from the French and Indian War to the modern war on terror. The old armory is a beautifully restored structure and the volunteers there were very friendly and informative. It is evident upon entry that the museum has taken great care to provide accurate descriptions and interpretation to their collections. They no longer have Santa Anna's wooden leg set out for display so that was a disappointment! Definitely worth an hour or two visit.

I've been to the FAM 4 times and find something new to appreciate each visit. The museum itself is…read morewonderfully designed. My favorite area is the "original stories" shown on a massive wrap around screen -- complete with rock shaped seats. From there you follow a timeline of significant moments in indigenous history. The children's wing has come so far in the last few years and has a ton of interactive options for kids and adults alike. A note about accessibility: The FAM does an amazing job not only being ADA compliant but going above and beyond. Audio and visual portions have physical text or captions for those who need it. Exhibit videos also display timers in the lower corner. There are several "fire pit" seating areas throughout that allow for folks to rest. These are also all wheelchair accessible.

Of course the artwork and artifacts are beautiful but what really got me was the mood. This place is QUIET. Not in a sterile don't touch anything way (but yeah, also don't touch anything), but with the stories that are told on the video, or through the curated spaces. It's contemplative and deeply respectful. This is NOT your typical museum where kids are sprinting around screaming. It's calm. And somehow, that calm extends even to the children's area. The Family Discovery Center is EXCEPTIONAL. Kids can climb, build, and explore hands-on educational stations for hours. There are interactive games, and activities that teach caring for our world which is the theme "We are all Connected." I really enjoyed the videos that detailed how the first Americans believed males and females were formed, I wish they had the animated video in a book format for purchase. Come spend a few hours here and take the time to reflect.

The 99s Museum of Women Pilots is a true hidden gem in OKC. I was genuinely surprised by how much…read morehistory is packed into this space. Seeing the flight suits, the changing fashions over the years, and especially the Amelia Earhart collection (including a lock of her hair) was a unique and memorable experience. You can really feel the care and passion behind preserving these stories and achievements. I learned a lot during my visit, and the artifacts are honestly beautiful. If I had one small suggestion, it would be about the lighting--it felt a bit harsh in some areas and made it harder to appreciate certain displays. I completely understand that museums sometimes have to work with what's available, but a warmer, softer lighting setup could really help the exhibits stand out even more. The staff were welcoming, and I appreciated that they offer discounts for seniors, students, and military visitors. If you're in OKC and interested in aviation or women's history, I definitely recommend making time to visit. 4300 Amelia Earhart Drive Open Tuesday through Saturday, 10 am to 4 pm Guided tours are offered when volunteers are available

The team member at the Firefighter's museum had mentioned that the 45th Infantry Division Museum was just down the road, and it is free! We decided to go check it out! I am so glad that we did! The museum has so much history, revolving around the 45th Infantry Division, also known as the Thunderbirds. My family and I learned a lot by going to the 45th Infantry Division Museum. The division had significant contributions during a variety of conflicts such as World War II and the Korean War. You'll be able to explore their comprehensive collection of artifacts, photographs, and exhibits that described the military journey. You will also see detailed information on training, battles, and sacrifices made by the soldiers of the 45th Infantry Division. Two of the most notable features is the Hall of Flags, where visitors can see the divisions distinctive flags and banners, as well as the outside area which has several tanks, helicopters, planes, and military vehicles. The Hall of Flags has symbols that represent the units and all the campaigns that the 45th Division was actively involved in. You will also see a variety of military equipment throughout all of the different conflicts, weaponry, and personal items. This is a phenomenal museum. We spent a few hours going through all the artifacts and reading the descriptions. Highly recommend visiting if you are local or visiting OKC.
