Welcome Reception for Military Leadership hosted by 
Frank and Bette Jo Hill

OKCMOA is proud to collaborate with the United Service Organizations (USO) to welcome military members and their families to the Museum for a Military Appreciation Day. This inaugural event will align OKCMOA’s mission “to enrich lives through the visual arts,” and USO’s mission “to strengthen the well-being of the people serving in America’s military and their families,” to provide a day where service members and their families can experience all the Museum has to offer free of charge. Programming includes an Oath of Service ceremony, a card-making station for delivery to deployed service members, and a children’s art gallery exhibition for USO Craft Camp participants.

Painting Classes
10:30 am-12 pm and 2-3:30 pm | Exclusive to military service members and their adult guests

Participate in a painting class led by an OKCMOA teaching artist! Limited to 20 registrants per session. Questions? Email usooklahoma@uso.org

Card-Making Station
11 am-4 pm | Open to the public

As part of our commitment to fostering a sense of community, visitors to the Museum will have the meaningful opportunity to create “thank you for your service” cards. These heartfelt messages will be sent to our brave service members who are deployed overseas, allowing our visitors to directly contribute to their well-being and show their support. 

Drop-In Gallery Tours
11 am, 1 pm, 2 pm, and 3 pm | Exclusive to military service members and their families

Participate in a guided tour of OKCMOA’s world-famous Chihuly glass collection. Offered at the top of the hour at 11 am, 1 pm, 2 pm, and 3 pm. No registration required! 

Oath of Service Ceremony
12 pm | Open to the public

In coordination with the USO, Military Entrance Processing Stations (MEPS), and Recruiting Command, OKCMOA will host an Oath of Service ceremony in front of the Museum at Carolyn Hill Park. Immediately following the ceremony, new recruits and their families will be invited to stay for an informal lunch in the Museum. 

Military Kids Art Exhibition 
On View July 12-14 | Open to the public
OKCMOA invites all participants in the annual USO Craft Camp to visit the Museum to see their art on display. We look forward to welcoming our budding artists and their families to see their work! OKCMOA is pleased to host a punch and cookies reception for the artists and their families. (Reception time to be announced.)
