THE MUSEUM
Philbrook Museum of Art is committed to being Tulsa’s most welcoming and engaging cultural institution, providing a unique trifecta of experiences: a historic home, world class art museum, 25 acres of gardens.
Philbrook Museum of Art opened on October 25, 1939. The addition of a 70,000 square foot wing in 1990 turned the historic home into a modern museum complex. A major garden renovation in 2004 cemented the Museum’s reputation as “the most beautiful place in Oklahoma.”
Through bold action and strategic investment, we create a space for new ideas, diverse stories and perspectives, and social connection. The Philbrook Collection features more than 16,000 objects with a focus on American, Native American, and European art. Serving over 160,000 visitors annually, Philbrook shines a light on Tulsa’s storied and complex past while building a diverse and creative vision of the city’s future.
A Park Like None Other
Imagine a park that offers amazing attractions and world-class programming for all ages with no entry fee. This dream was built into reality at Gathering Place: Tulsas Riverfront Park. Gathering Place aims to serve as a cornerstone for our vibrant community while improving social, economic and environmental sustainability in Tulsa.
Our wish is for all Tulsans to enjoy this space. A park that reflects the unique culture and spirit of our city. A park that will continue to inspire imagination. A park like none other
Cherry Street
Near downtown in the Northern Midtown area lies the Cherry Street, one of the hottest areas in town and a foodie’s playground boasting around 20 restaurants, many of them locally owned. Add in the several antique and collectible boutiques and the quaint residential blocks surrounding Cherry Street, and it makes for the perfect brunch date, late-night bar crawl, or pleasant family dinner all-in-one in a hip ambiance.
