Join the Oklahoma History Center Museum on select Saturdays in July from 10:30 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. for OkieTales story time at the Oklahoma History Center. Staff will read a history-themed book and engage young guests in a hands-on or active activity. Some story time days will include a living history element.

OkieTales story time and activities are geared toward elementary students, preschoolers, and their families. The books and activities will be largely Oklahoma-themed and connected to the state’s history. Families do not need to register in advance. It’s a free come-and-go program with paid museum admission. OHS members can get in for free.
