National Cowboy & Western Heritage Museum® Meeting & Event Services
From its vantage point on Persimmon Hill in Oklahoma City, the National Cowboy & Western Heritage Museum commands a rare view of the American West. In half a century it has grown from a Hall of Fame honoring the American cowboy to a world-class institution housing extraordinary collections of art, artifacts, and archival materials. Although Western fine art has long been its primary focus, the Museum today collects a broad array of material that reflects the variety of peoples, cultures, and historical currents found in the West.

The time of day is just after sunset and most of the 19 buildings stand two-stories tall. Sounds of life lend reality to the town with the tones of a distant train whistle, the faintly heard barking of a dog, and the wind rushing across the prairie. Guests can order a drink in the Silver Dollar Saloon, take a selfie in Osborn Photography, and explore the school house, church, bank, and train depot.
