Mission Statement
The purpose of the Greater Southwest Historical Museum is to collect, preserve, and interpret the social, cultural, and economic history of South-Central Oklahoma, with special emphasis on Ardmore and Carter County.
Museum Survey
The Greater Southwest Historical Museum is asking for your help in an important project! We are engaging in a public dimension assessment through the American Association of Museum's Museum Assessment Program (MAP). This assessment will help the Museum assess our audiences and communities, public perception, public involvement, and public experience.
We ask that you complete the questionnaire to let us know what you think about the Museum and what it needs. To participate in this questionnaire, click here to take survey.
As an added bonus, anyone completing this survey and providing their contact information by Monday, March 22, 2010, will be entered in a drawing to win a free $150 Gas Card. Trustees, staff, and their immediate families are excluded from the drawing.
EXHIBITIONS
Our exhibits are housed in three historical wings. The museum is an entertaining historical and educational experience for the whole family.
