three rivers museum of muskogee, ok, inc.印象

I learned more about Muskogee by visiting the museum than I could have learned through any search engine. The photos are surreal. Buy the video from the museum called, "The spirits don't speak English"

Check out this museum. It give you insight into the local region's history. It's housed in the cool old train depot. And while you're there, pop into the OK Music Hall of Fame across the street. It features many plaques paying tribute to OK's musical heritage. OK is the home state of many musicians such as Charlie Christian, Barney Kessell, Garth Brooks, Wanda Jackson, Reba McIntire, Leon Russell, Roger Miller, Hoyt Axton, Mason Williams, Woody Guthrie, and so many others. There are some signed guitars and a few artifacts, in just two rooms--given OK's musical heritage, it could use some state funding and wider recognition. Right now, it's run by dedicated volunteers. If you're into music, whether it's blues, jazz, folk, country, or rock, you should check out this place to see OK's role in American music.

Visited the Three Rivers Museum in March 2013 when I was in town for a funeral. One of the docents / curators was kind enough to give a personal guided tour. The museum displays were undergoing some renovation (workers were building a cut-away display for an interior house display. Most of the other displays have new, informative descriptions typed up. This is a cool museum if you want a brief history of the Three Rivers region. Displays about the plains tribes, the white settlers, the growth of Muskogee, the bad tornadoes in the 1940s are brought to life with photos and artifacts. There is a small gift shop, and the museum is trying to make more displays interactive and hands-on. If you go, ask for Karen: she is a walking encyclopedia of local history.

My boyfriend and his daughter put in at the Muskogee dock. We traveled down the river to Ark. This river has some awesome scenery. We was gone for 6 days and lived on the boat at stop at the marinas for gas. You meet a lot of interesting people along the way.

A little place but it's filled to the brim with all kinds of history and they even have a Train that you can go into and pretend you are traveling down the tracks!!!

Small museum with a couple of neat Belle Starr artifacts and lots of train things. Many pictures of the Muskogee area over time and some art. Don't begrudge them the $3 per person because they are really trying.

Although you may not want to take my recommendation because I was very rushed for time in this museum I was not that impressed. It was fairly small and not as interesting as many I've been to.

It was a very clean museum! We were from out of town so a lot of the history didn't ring a bell to me, however if you are from that area it is really good content. The lady at the desk was very knowledgeable and very accommodating. They have an awesome train out back that she gave us the key to get into. Our kids loved climbing on it and pretending they were a train conductor.

This is a small museum that has several display areas set up throughout the old train depot. The lady working the entrance was extremely knowledgeable and helpful. You go at your own pace and look at the different historical displays. Everything was laid out well and easy to understand. They have a little gift shop with t-shirts and toys but you don't get the feel you HAVE to buy like in some other museums I've been to. You are allowed to go inside the cab of the train sitting out back to get a feel of how running a train is like but there are no amusement type activities. This was a great little place to learn about Muskogee and the entrance fee is more than worth it.

You can learn the evolution of education from Mission Schools through statehood, of the industries that built the state, with wonderful artwork throughout. Short bios of the people that did the building make it all the more real, as do exhibits of everyday life. Many unique artifacts with explanations of when, why, and how they were used. Every ethnic group is represented in every aspect of the history, and is portrayed here. Needs more than one visit to absorb it all, but at $3 a visit more are affordable.
