The Museum of the Red River celebrates the world's artistic heritage, while emphasizing the contributions made to this heritage by the native peoples of the Americas. Artifacts and related materials dating from prehistoric to contemporary times are collected, preserved, researched and exhibited in order to foster aesthetic appreciation, stimulate curiosity, and inspire further study. Complementary programs and activities provide additional learning opportunities to our audiences. The Museum is also home to Acrocanthosaurus atokensis, the official State Dinosaur of Oklahoma.
