A Look Into the Past

Oklahoma City – and the state as a whole – have a storied past in the Wild West. Relive the glory days of the cowboy through a fantastic exhibit at the National Cowboy & Western Heritage Museum. Shown at only 10 locations across the U.S. “National Geographic: Greatest Photographs of the American West” will transport you to the days of saddles and spurs as you experience our nation’s western heritage through the art of photography. The exhibit kicks off this Saturday, Oct. 27 and will run through Jan. 6, 2013. And when you fall in love with the exhibit (because we know you will), you can head over to the Museum Store and purchase the companion book. The store has endless treasures for you to take home – maybe you can even get a jump start on your holiday shopping.

The National Cowboy & Western Heritage Museum is open daily from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., except for Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year’s Day. Admission is $12.50 for adults, $9.75 for seniors (62+) and students with a valid ID, $5.75 for children ages 4-12. Children under 3 are admitted for free.
