I came here on two occasions: Big Bite & an exhibition held by BZRO. Big Bite was fun & I had a…read moregreat experience. One side of the room, tickets were being handled while in the middle, you get your drinks & then you move over to the other side of the place, that's where all of the food vendors were at (all local & delicious). In the middle of it all, along with a really big staircase, there was a DJ. Upstairs (during Big Bite) there was an exhibition with all kind of art displays & art installations. There was a great view from up top, especially while I was checking out Tulsa Tough. An all day event that ended with a concert featuring Sports, a band that I listen to heavy. That was in 2023, fast forward to now, there was an exhibition I visited that was hosted by BZRO & it consisted of his denim work & the history of denim. There was even an element of where you can interact with a machine that does the weaving. It was interesting learning the process of making pants & how denim was centuries ago compared to present time.

I've been looking forward to this museum opening since it was announced in 2009. While not very…read morevisually appealing on the outside, I'm excited about the vision to highlight Oklahoma artists and their influence through movies, radio, tv, books, theater, etc. Last I heard, they're hoping to open at the end of 2024, but they have already started hosting events at their facilities. Their staff has been in the building since 2021. They recently had a display honoring James Garner, an actor from Norman. Blake Shelton has been helping them raise money needed to finish the exhibit design, construction and installation. I hope they're able to reach their goal and I look forward to seeing it in its completion.

The museum is far larger and more comprehensive than I expected. Their collection is truly…read moreimpressive, from fine art to traditional ceremonial pieces that highlight centuries of Jewish culture and craftsmanship. What I appreciated most was how thoughtful the exhibits explained various customs and traditions. You don't just see beautiful objects, you learn the meaning behind them. Displays on Shabbat, the marital contract, bar mitzvah, and other cultural practices are presented with clearer, engaging detail that makes the experience both educational and deeply enriching. They have an exhibit honoring Oklahoma's World War II veterans who helped liberate Jewish people during the holocaust. It's a powerful tribute that adds important historical context and emotional depth to the visit. Whether you're interested in art, history, or cultural education, this museum is absolutely worth your time. It's one of Tulsa's most meaningful and well curated museums.

Home Depot bought the site in the 90s, thankfully saved the facade and rebuilt a building for a million dollars! Way before my time, I read this site was McNulty Baseball Park where Babe Ruth and the Yankees played! I also didn't know the building had been Club Lido in the 30s. Benny Goodman, Duke Ellington and Cab Calloway performed there! It is in all the Art Deco books!

I had a great time walking through this museum. Learned so much about Will Rogers. I noticed…read moresomething unique--on Will & Betty's marriage certificate, her name is spelled Bettie. Isn't that fascinating?!! I loved all the movies and documentaries throughout the museum. There were two cowpokes with ropes, twirling them throughout the museum and it added to the ambience. I enjoyed walking the sunken garden and exploring the many rooms. I think my favorite was the theater room. I wish I could have spent all day and watched all the available shows you can select to watch on the big screen. Very well done museum.

After paying our admission, we were directed to the beginning of the self guided tour. We met another friendly staff member who provided quite of lot of insight to Will Rogers' life and history. We went through several rooms, some had monitors playing old movies and historical stories. The theater room allows you to choose from several different shows from various perspectives on Will Rogers' life. One show was narrated by Bob Hope. Will and his family are interned on the premises outside and the location allows you to take in the overall beauty of the land. They have a nice resting place. We concluded our tour. You have the option of visiting the gift shop before you leave for any souvenirs you may desire to purchase.

For an example on behalf of their musical history: The mic that we used to record with was the same mic David Bowie used. We were booked for a 2-day session & I enjoyed every second of it. There was a whole setup with snacks, water, tea & coffee. The engineers were open-minded & really good collaborators, they gave great feedback + input. Everyone on staff were nice & friendly.

I toured it…read morewhen it was still a construction site and finally made it back to tour the finished facilities. It is absolutely breathtaking, even for someone like me who knows absolutely nothing about biking or BMX (which I learned stands for bicycle motocross). The facility includes the new 25,000-square-foot headquarters building and USA BMX Hall of Fame, standing next door to the Hardesty National BMX Stadium-an outdoor free-span arena with seating for 2,000 that hosts weekly racing, practices, coaching clinics, elite training camps and many World Cup events-just north of downtown. It's the largest covered track in North America! The BMX Foundation offers programming that combines science, technology, engineering and math using cycling to instill life skills such as teamwork, exploration, mobility, discovery, and physical fitness. They have summer camps as well as some year round programming mostly for 4-8th graders. Scholarships are available for families unable to pay for the camp costs. The curriculum they use includes a STEAM kit and it's available for purchase for teachers or schools interested in it. For older students and young adults, they have Project Bike Tech, which introduces them to career opportunities in the bicycle industry and other mechanical/technical careers. The BMX hall of fame and museum holds five decades of bicycle evolution. The collection includes winning bikes, historical souvenirs, and jerseys of famous riders and racers.
