## About

First Americans Museum (FAM) honors the history, collective culture, and ongoing art of the 39 distinct tribal nations in Oklahoma today. Situated on the scenic banks of the Oklahoma River, this magnificent cultural center offers an unforgettable family immersion during Native American Heritage month. This weekend, special family programming includes live oral storytelling circles led by tribal elders in the giant Festival Plaza, showcasing captivating traditional tales of animal wisdom, nature reverence, and tribal ancestry. Children can also participate in interactive clay pottery pinch-pot crafting and traditional ribbon-weaving workshops in the FAM education studio. Outside, families can take a guided, meditative walk around the iconic FAM Earth Mound, which is aligned with the solstices and equinoxes.

Stroller Accessibility & Family Amenities:
FAM is a thoroughly modern architectural masterpiece that exceeds ADA standards with seamless ramps, expansive galleries, and oversized glass elevators that accommodate multi-child strollers with ease. The spacious Hall of The People and OKLA exhibit wings have wide aisles free of obstructions. Stroller parking is available adjacent to the multi-media theater and workshop studio entries. Family restrooms with hygienic, padded diaper changing units are located on both main museum concourses. For mothers with infants, the First Americans Museum offers a peaceful, private Mother’s Quiet Nursing Room located just steps from the Welcome Desk, featuring an upholstered rocking recliner, power outlets for medical accessories, baby wipe dispensers, and private lockable access.
