About this adventure

Situated along the banks of the Oklahoma River, the First Americans Museum (FAM) is a stunning architectural marvel dedicated to sharing the collective history, culture, and continuing contributions of the 39 distinct tribal nations in Oklahoma today. Inside the climate-controlled 175,000-square-foot museum, families discover vibrant multi-media theaters, historic regalia, indigenous artwork, and interactive storytelling stations. The FAMily Discovery Center invites children to participate in hands-on games, puzzle challenges, and cultural storytelling that teach native languages, traditional sports like stickball, and sustainable environmental practices.
