    Great experience!
    We had a great time at this museum. The regular exhibits were interesting enough, and were organized on the basis of theme (the sea, publicly funded art of the 1930's, international travel, portraits, etc.) There were 3 special exhibits, 2 of which were great-1. an exhibit on Rodin (which included some of his paintings as well as his statues, and artwork from Monet, Sisley, Gauguin, and Cezanne). Highly informative, useful for understanding the man and his work. 2. A solid collective of Chihuly glasswork, quite impressive. The Rodin exhibit is ending soon, but the Chihuly exhibit goes well into 2024! They have a small cafe with limited offering, which were fairly good. The gift shop was good. Overall, a very good museum.

    The Goldilocks of Art Museums—Just Right
    This art museum is the perfect size with enough artistic styles to satisfy a variety of artistic tastes. And you can see it all before you hit your saturation point. The Rodin exhibit (temporary) was incredible but my favorite was the Chihuly section. Well done!

    Great museum and tour
    Our family visited the museum on Sat. 3/23/24. We were there primarily to see the 'Raven and box of light" exhibit which was excellent. We arranged for a tour (min. 10 people) through the museum and loved the tour. We found the tour very helpful (thanks Tori for the great tour and Destiny for helping us schedule it). The museum has a great and very large collection of Chihuly glass which we thought was great. There are several other types of glass work exhibits and a good sized painting exhibit area. Overall we spent about 3 hours in the museum, including the tour and it was well worth it. If you are in OKC this is a must do.

    Quality Museum
    Visited to see the Edith Head exhibit specifically. A definite must-see for anyone interested in costume design or the golden age of Hollywood. Superbly designed exhibit which speaks the quality of this museum. Helpful staff who take pride in their work.

    Enjoyable afternoon
    We went for the special Edith Head exhibition and it was fabulous. The dresses were amazing and the short films so interesting. The Chihuley glass is a permanent exhibit and a wonderful opportunity to see the whole spectrum of his work

    Wonderful exhibit
    Drove north from Texas to see the Edith Head exhibit. Wonderful exhibit. The bonus was the Chihuly exhibit! We knew that has some pieces but no idea it is one of the largest. The museum store includes a bar with coffee, cocktails & food.

The main reason we went here was to see the Chihuly glass. Unfortunately the exhibit was closed for maintenance which was very disappointing since this is probably the only time I'll ever be in OKC. The pop art was really good and we enjoyed many of the European and American paintings. The Chihuly piece in the lobby is impressive and the video was very interesting.

We went with the sole aim to stay safe by minimizing contact and just visiting the Dale Chihuly exhibition. It is simply outstanding and memorable. A nice video feature allows you to see his process of creating these incredible glass works. The atrium glass piece and Waterford Crystal chandelier also add to the experience. Don’t miss this.

I want to talk about something that is almost never talked about. The lack of or inclusion of women artist. This art museum has done something in over 30 years of museuming I have never seen done before!In their main exhibit they had an equal number of women artists to the men artists. There was absolutely no mention of it nor was this a focus at all of the exhibit. The exhibit was amazing and for me personally much more so because of the intent to be as creative representing all artist.

This intent and curator eye for detail carries through this whole museum.

The Chihuly glass exhibition is a cut above what is shown almost anywhere else in the world. Read all the other reviews about the amazing art being shown here that represents both a large period of time in art and a range of different focus.

We visited this on a hot summer day including the special exhibit on Pompeii. Doing all of the museum including the Chihuly glass stuff took about two hours. We have been to the Chihuly Museum in Seattle and they have a nice complement of his work in this museum. Staff was friendly, my only complaint was the cost but I always complain about that:)

First time visitors--went for the fresco Painters of Pompeii, which was fantastic. We missed going to the museum in Naples where these are normally housed. OKC was the only place in the US where they were shown. Then we saw the post modern and post-post modern regular exhibits which were a great selection. Arrangement of some of the other exhibits was great, such as a series of portraits from many different time periods; very thoughtfully presented.

Gift shop was really nice and lunch in the cafe was lovely and tasty.

Who knew that OKC had the distinction of having the most Chihuly glass pieces of anywhere in the world? THIS is what we came to see, and it did not disappoint! This is a beautiful museum with three floors to explore. There are pieces from all of the world - old and contemporary. But the Chihuly pieces? Those are what you will spend most of your time looking it. They are breathtaking!

We enjoyed our afternoon at the art museum. They have the largest permanent Chihuly exhibit in the world as well as a nice selection of western art. Other than that they didn't have too much else, but it was still a really good time. We love Chihuly glass.

Loved,loved, loved all the Chihuly glass exhibits! Could have spent all day taking them in. Enjoyed how the rest of the exhibits were arranged by genre of art and the explanations posted on the walls in each room. Was just a little disappointed that the museum wasn’t a little bigger. A pleasant 2-3 hours (would have been less if I hadn’t obsessed on the Chihuly exhibits!).

Interesting exhibits- beautiful variety of Chihuly pieces , the best museum didactics I have ever read beside the artworks that really engage one in the story of the painting - bordering on gossip, a few edgy exhibits, and my husband’s favorite ( a sports not usually arts guy) was a photography exhibit incorporating viewers of art into photos of paintings in such a way that they “fit” in the paintings. We then had to duplicate the experience with him as the photographer and me next to the incorporated viewer. He thought that was the coolest thing ever.
Also the gift shop is wild with vast price points and an experience in itself. We were visiting from Ohio.
Definitely worth a stop.
