Cherokee Strip Museum reports school programs, visitor events and upcoming cultural exhibitions
Summary
The Cherokee Strip Museum presented its first‑quarter report to the council, detailing school programs, visitor numbers, media coverage, and upcoming events including a cultural heritage art exhibition May 3 and Sounds of the Prairie in June.
A representative of the Cherokee Strip Museum gave a quarterly report to the council on April 21 highlighting K‑12 outreach, recent visitor events and a slate of upcoming programs.
The presenter said school outreach included 25 classes and an assembly program described in the report, and that the museum hosted events that drew visitors from outside the area including attendees who reserved local lodging. "We had a couple segments over that from OETA and News 9," the presenter said, and noted ongoing grant writing and planning work during the slower early months of the year.
Upcoming events listed included a Cultural Heritage Art Exhibition on May 3, Sounds of the Prairie with the Hunt Brothers in June, an author event June 20 and a Francoma pottery class June 28. The presenter said the museum uses its stipend to help offset utilities and thanked the city for its support.
Ending: The museum plans to publish dates and program details on the city calendar and will continue grant work and curriculum updates, including drone photography and videography to refresh educational materials.
