Cultural Day
June 18, 10am - 2pm
Oklahoma History Center
The Oklahoma History Center is offering events targeted to families with children. These Saturday programs run January through October on the third Saturday of each month from 10:00 AM - 2:00 PM. Families from across the state are invited to explore the unique history of Oklahoma and other historic topics through living history, activities, scavenger hunts, crafts, and more.
The new programs are designed to engage young visitors and let families explore together. Family programming goes hand-in-hand with the museum's mission to collect, preserve, and share Oklahoma history. The goal is to inspire our young patrons, to educate them, and to entertain. Family Saturdays are themed and offer a variety of hands-on activities for all ages.
Join us on June 18th at the Oklahoma History Center. Our family Saturday program for June will focus on the cultures that make Oklahoma unique. Individuals from around the world call our state home, so come explore our state's unique heritage through crafts and activities.
Please call (405)522-0785 if you have questions about the program.
