Great location and excellent pieces during different times of the year. Perfect place to learn about the giant tornado that nearly blew away Woodward entirely as well as educational for children. Wonderful exhibits and local photography contests. A definite place to stop while visiting Woodward or on your way through to another destination.
I have taken friends and family members to this museum. We have returned for their special displays and always seem to see something new in their normal exhibits too. Great time to support our local museum and learn about the area's history and pass it on to the new generations.
Nice little museum where you can learn about the indians from this area. It has an outside with replicia buildings.
Museum was well run and presented. High quality for small town.Beautiful murals on the ceiling. Nice presentation on artifacts found in the area. Admission was donations,
As a kid in the 80's, I went here often when I lived in Woodward. Now as an adult, I took my family and had a great time. The exhibits are extremely educational and fun. My kids loved it. They had a great time and learned a-lot about the Indians/pioneers/cowboys of that area. I live in Enid now and totally wish our museum was as nice and informative as this one.
We had heard that The Plains Indians and Pioneers Museum is the best local history museum in Oklahoma, and it lived up to its reputation. Too many local history museums become the "attic" for the town and have no focus or logical transition from one historical period to the next. The museum in Woodward is well-focused, well-organized, and on top of that has an interesting story to tell. The staff is exceptionally friendly. By all means, make time to visit this museum if you are passing through Woodward.
This is a wonderful little museum. Interesting displays include Native American, Temple Houston, and the Woodward tornado. They also have a display that constantly changes featuring local artists etc. Admission is by donation, and there is a nice little gift shop.
The is a wonderful little local museum. It is divided between indigenous history, settler history, and visiting exhibits. They have a small gift shop with local artists and writers represented, and a couple times a year they host "Ask the Archeologist."
This was a very interesting museum. It showed early Oklahoma life, and the days of the dust bowl. It had things for children also. We enjoyed it very much. It wasn't a large museum so you can tour it in 2-3 hours, or however long you like. There is no admission fee. It is by donations, but it has a lot of good things to see. Well worth the stop to see it .
Museum has an interesting exhibit of the 1947 tornado and frequently features art exhibits from area artists
