Description

Experience Oklahoma's story through its people at the Gaylord-Pickens Oklahoma Heritage Museum. Meet the famous and everyday Oklahomans who have shaped the history of our state, country and world via high-tech, interactive exhibits.

In the Oklahoma Through Its People Gallery of the Oklahoma Heritage Museum, you'll find video-driven displays on famous and not-so-famous Oklahomans, all focused around the five characteristics of an Oklahoman - perseverance, optimism, pioneer spirit, individualism and generosity. Oklahomans featured here include Reba McEntire, Shannon Lucid, Wiley Post, Will Rogers, The Flaming Lips, Shannon Miller, Mat Hoffman, Maria Tallchief, Ada Fisher, Greg Burns, Charlie Christian and Ralph Ellison among many others.

Become part of Oklahoma history in the ONEOK Tell Your Story exhibit. Share and record stories about your own Oklahoma heritage, and then e-mail your recording to yourself or a loved one as a souvenir. Choose to archive your story at the Oklahoma Heritage Museum for future visitors to see.

Meet the more than 600 accomplished Oklahomans who have received the state's highest honor since 1928 in the Oklahoma Hall of Fame Gallery. Look up individuals by name, hometown or industry, and try your hand at an Oklahoma trivia game via interactive touchscreen computers.

Visit the Museum Store to find distinctive Oklahoma gifts, publications on Oklahoma's people and history and unique educational tools.
