In Oklahoma today, visitors can explore where the collective histories of 39 unique First American Nations come to life. The First Americans Museum is a celebration of cultural diversity, history, and contributions of the indigenous people who inhabited this land long before the United States came into existence. It's important to acknowledge and honor the First American Nations that called this land home, including the Apache, Caddo, Tonkawa, Wichita, Comanche, Kiowa, Osage, Quapaw, Muscogee, and Seminole. These nations have a historical relationship with this region and have contributed to the rich tapestry of Oklahoma's cultural heritage.
Did you know that Oklahoma City has an award-winning community theater? The Jewel Box Theatre has provided exceptional live performances from August through May for over 52 years. What's even more impressive is that it's the recipient of the Governor's Arts Award. The theater-in-the-round is home to some of the state's most talented actors, directors, and set designers. They've been entertaining locals with their exceptional productions for generations. The Jewel Box Theatre has existed since 1911 when it was known as the "Jewel Box Players." It's the longest-operating, non-union theater company in Oklahoma and has gained a reputation for producing some of the best theatrical performances in the state. Despite its age, the theater hosts six diverse productions yearly, including comedies, dramas, musicals, classics, and even originals.
