and preserved that have some historical significance for the state of Oklahoma. Several items are circulated into and out of the various exhibits, periodically. However, there are some items that are so rare or so fragile that they are never put out on exhibit. As a special treat for our tour groups, a curator will pull several items out of the collection for a private showing. Some of these items will never be seen by the public. Another option is a living history performance. Several staff and volunteers have gone to great lengths to replicate an individual from a particular era. This includes period dress, personalhistory and history of that time period. When these living historians are “in character,” you will have a definite time machine experience.
