In addition to its primary focus on Oklahoma history, the museum provides exhibits and educational programs representative of a wider cultural context. The museum collects, preserves and interprets artifacts and materials relevant to the histories, societies and cultures of all the diverse peoples of Oklahoma, including contemporary societies.
