Oklahoma City Museum of Art, Oklahoma

Museum
In Oklahoma City, Oklahoma
1.6 mi from Route 66

Known as OKCMOA, the city's art museum in Oklahoma City, OK, fills a downtown visual arts center bearing the name of Donald W. Reynolds. It mixes traveling exhibitions with works from its own collection and runs a film theater and a restaurant. Its highlight is a Chihuly glass collection counted among the most complete anywhere, crowned by a 55-foot glass tower in the atrium. Close to the old road, it is an easy cultural stop in the capital.

What is Oklahoma City Museum of Art?

The museum has several sides. Galleries show changing special exhibitions that travel between museums, alongside pieces drawn from the museum's own holdings. A theater screens foreign, independent and classic films every week, and there is a restaurant on site.

The glass is what most visitors remember. The museum owns a very large collection of Chihuly glass, and its centerpiece, the Eleanor Blake Kirkpatrick Memorial Tower, rises 55 feet in the atrium.

Visiting Oklahoma City Museum of Art: tips

Allow one to two hours, more if you plan to catch a film. It is not free to visit. Restrooms are on site, parking is available, it is listed as wheelchair accessible and it is considered kid-friendly.

The Oklahoma City National Memorial is about 0.3 miles away, the Myriad Botanical Gardens about 0.4 miles and the American Banjo Museum about 0.6 miles, so several downtown stops fit into one day on foot.
