First Americans Museum

What an amazing museum! To get the entire gist, I would suggest a guide. The beautiful words from the guide offers an unexpected perspective. The displays and art work are phenomenal. What a beautiful and loving tribute to the tribes.

This museum is a must if you're visiting OKC! There's not a single inch in this place that isn't very interesting: pictures, objects, timelines, multimedia, human size map, etc. We came yesterday (Saturday) and the entrance was $15 dlls adults, $7 dlls kids (mine is 9yo). I ended the tour greatly surprised with all the expositions. We didn't get to try the cafeteria, but if you visit the museum you have to make a stop at the gift shop. Everything there is unique and absolutely beautiful... And the chocolate almond bars are amazing (highly recommended hahaha)

The First Americans museum does an outstanding job of educating and immersing you into Native cultures. The videos, stories, and artifacts all tie together for a truly unique and worthwhile experience. Even the architecture of the buildings are unique and beautiful

We went during the solstice event. They opened most of it to the public for no admission and what we were able to see was very interesting and enjoyable. The staff were accommodating and handled the medium sized crowd pretty well. For this event, there were food trucks and vendors set up and they seemed to draw their own crowds. There is still construction adjacent to the property, for complimentary activities.

First Americans Museum was very interesting, and very educational. The plight of the original Americans has always fascinated me. What stands out more than anything else for me was the fascinating architecture of the building.

The architecture of the building is pleasing to your eye. The museum dispels the disinformation that many of us have been subjected to in our early years of education. The many items created by first Americans and the techniques they used explained in the displays. I found it interesting that each tribe used its own patterns in beading and their dances were different as well.

I give this place more than 5 stars. What an amazing representation of history that every American needs to see. The videos tell stories from first Americans and historians. The images are amazing. Everything is presented in a way that is easy to digest, while so compelling and powerful. This places centers the voices of first Americans, unlike other places that simply talk about them (and more about their belongings) from a third person, impersonal, blinded view. We happened to visit on a special day, where people of all ages were dressed beautifully and danced on the green in competitions. It was a privilege to experience. We need more museums like this across the nation. There are so many more stories to tell. First Americans lived at least 10,000 years on this land and took such amazing care of it and each other.

Wow! What an amazing and incredibly important museum. We got lucky and caught the free 1 pm tour, and our guide Chris was great! The museum is informative and doesn’t shy away from the horrible truth of the history of native people in this country. I learned, I cried, and I left a better and more educated person.
