Duncan Oklahoma National Day of the Cowboy 2015
July 25, 2015 @ 10:00 am - 4:30 pm
National Day of the Cowboy celebration
10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturday, July 25, 2015.
This is a free day where young’uns (no matter what your age!) can come and have a fun time at the museum.
Rope a Longhorn, ride a buckin’ bronc, create your own brand! Beat the heat in our 4D Experience Theater where you can watch the cattle stampede, cool off during a summer thunderstorm on the Oklahoma prairie and learn a little about life as a cowboy.
Visit our Campfire Theater and listen to Jesse Chisholm and Tex share their campfire tales while some ruckus is made in the wagon as cowboys try to get comfortable for the night. Art lovers will delight in our Garis Gallery of the American West where they can view up close the prized works of George Catlin, Frederic Remington and Charles Russell. Other local and regional artists also are on display, including the work of Chad Payne.
This year’s National Day of the Cowboy celebration will highlight the Singing Cowboy. We will have an ExhibitsUSA exhibition “Grand Ole Opry” – 30 original gelatin silver prints by Gordon Gillingham, from the 1950s. Come see these historic images, learn the history and create some of your own memories.
