    I listen to a lot of music, so I was obviously aware of Woody Guthrie, but I was not aware of his…read morebeginnings and the events - especially his early home life and the Dust Bowl - that shaped and influenced his songwriting. The museum does a magnificent job mixing photos, historical artifacts and technology to tell Guthrie's story, and how he became one of folk music's largest influences. I could write more about it, but I really think it's something you should experience in person. Trust me - it's worth it. I spent around two and one half hours with the exhibits and I could have stayed longer. Make sure you watch the intro video before you start your tour. Then make time to watch the VR presentation about the Dust Bowl.

    The first time Dan and I went to the Woody Guthrie Center was during a Yelp event. I was so happy…read morethat we had the opportunity to take our grandson and our daughter there last Sunday. They loved it as much as we did. I can't wait to take the rest of the grandchildren. This is a well organized museum. The exhibits attract and holds the interest of people of all ages. My 13 year old grandson who like most 13 year olds bores easily with anything that's not a video game or legos, was totally engaged. All of the staff was wonderful, but I was particularly impressed with Sam, who went way beyond what was expected to help us understand Woody Guthrie and that period of history. I am a retired history teacher and I appreciate encountering talented and dedicated teachers whether they are employed in schools or places such as museums.

    Visiting the Greenwood Rising Black Wall Street History Center was such an amazing and powerful…read moreexperience. It was incredible to learn about the history of Greenwood and see it up close through pictures and exhibits. Being from Oakland, CA, I've learned about this history through stories, videos, and books. But actually standing in Greenwood and seeing the history displayed on the walls made it feel so real and meaningful. It gave me a deeper understanding and appreciation for the strength and resilience of the community. This museum is a must-see for anyone visiting the Tulsa area. It's educational, moving, and something you won't forget.

    The history of the Greenwood Massacre/Tulsa Race Massacre is a stain on Oklahoma history not only…read morebecause of the atrocities white south Tulsans committed, but the lack of appropriate response from Oklahoma law enforcement and state government. Nevertheless, in the early 21st century Tulsans of all races have come together to remember and heal in this fantastic museum experience that weaves early Oklahoma history, African-American north Tulsa prosperity, devastation of white supremacy and greed, and pathways forward. People from all over the globe stop in by the dozens, hundreds, and even thousands per day. There are photos, videos, and exhibits to immerse oneself in the history and the pathway forward.

    The premiere museum for Western and Native American art, Gilcrease is a celebration of all things…read moreWestern, including native peoples, cowboys, and what life was like for people living on the prairie, etc. They have a dedicated space for a traveling exhibit that is always super cool--some of my favorite collections that have come through Tulsa have come through here. Especially for people who just disregard Oklahoma as flyover country, this is an important cultural institution and a place to showcase all the complexities of the West then and now. Possibly one of the coolest parts of this museum is downstairs in their archives, where anyone can look up what they want to see and go find it in their many cases and drawers. So few museums grant this much access, whether you're just a curious visitor or you're bringing kiddos who want to learn about everything from the prehistoric animals that once roamed this land to the modern west, this is an amazing resource!

    Estimated re-opening date will be in 2027 after 6 years of renovation…read more When it was open during pre-COVID times, the anthropology collections inside this museum featured the world's largest gathering of American West and indigenous Native American art and cultural artifacts that were truly a wonderful sight to behold.
