First Americans Museum, Native American history museum in Oklahoma City, United States
The First Americans Museum is a place where the histories and cultures of 39 different tribal nations from Oklahoma are presented together. It features large exhibition spaces filled with objects, artwork, and documentation from these communities.
The museum stands on land that saw major settlement changes when newcomers arrived in Oklahoma during the 1800s. The project took years of planning and collaboration with tribal nations before it could open to visitors.
The museum displays traditional crafts and artworks that tribal communities in Oklahoma create and use today. You can see how ancestral techniques remain alive through contemporary pieces and what these objects mean to the people who make them.
Visitors can find a restaurant serving locally-inspired food and a shop selling Native American artwork throughout the building. Guided tours are available if you want someone to help explain the exhibitions and guide you through the space.
A large glass wall inside the building is angled so that sunlight enters in a special way during certain times of the year. This natural alignment creates an unexpected connection between the building's design and the seasonal rhythms of nature.
