Super sad that my family and I drove 2 hours to visit today, and the museum is closed, even though the website said it would be open....

I am the historical interpreter for the museum. So sorry you were unable to come in to see us. I hope you were still able to have a good time in Ponca City. Not sure what the situation was exactly, as that was some time ago as of my response. If this was in January, we usually close for a week to do inventory. We post any unexpected closures on our doors and Facebook page. The website is run by the Oklahoma Historical Society, and it takes a while for them to make any changes. Otherwise, this is not a common occurrence. For your convenience, we are normally open from 10 AM to 5 PM, Tuesdays through Saturdays.

I don't know what the hours are. I also missed the museum's open time 😕
