During my grade and middle school years, my family has always spent weekends in Tulsa for shopping and the zoo. We had a zoo membership for years and so I should remember it now visiting here a few days ago. Well, the only things I remembered were the WILD LIFE TREK exhibits. Also, I feel cheated since the polar bears no longer are at the zoo. It has been replaced with a duplicate grizzly bear exhibit. Oh well, polar bears are expensive probably to maintain. I think the OKC zoo is better but hey, it's Tulsa and it was our childhood memories. As a kid, I always had fond memories and this Tulsa zoo has quite a good collection of large animals- chimps, penguins, lions, tigers, etc.

Visited the new exhibit. It was nice. The rendering made it look 10X better than it actually is so I was kind of let down because of that. But if you never saw the rendering then it is definitely worth it. I love how the Tiger cell wraps through the whole area and takes up a good 25-35% of the entire pod. Plus, the restaurant is amazing. The pizza is what o recommend. It will fill you up. Plus, they have a patio area where you can eat next to the tigers if they are in that area of their holding cell. Enjoyed it very much.

If you are looking for somewhere to take a person who is visiting from out of town, go here. If it's summer, you can enjoy the art and then stroll through the vast garden in the back and enjoy the beautiful landscaping. If it's winter, you can enjoy the art and then see the beautiful Christmas lights they put up. Then of course, you can go to the cafe and drink some coffee or enjoy a snack while you ponder all the beauty you've just examined. Afterwards, don't forget to check out the gift shop full of unique and handmade items that will make unforgettable gifts for your loved ones!

This place is breathtaking!!!! I love all the different types of art and how creative each individual one is. When we first walk in we were greeted by the front desk and then by the friendly security guard who also gave us the history of the museum. I love how each room is designed differently and caters to the art work that is in it. The garden is beautifully done, I love all the beautiful colors and how relaxing it is. I would recommend this place if you are in the Tulsa area.

Gilcrease is always a great museum but the last time I went there was for a fun outdoor event. They had a bluegrass band and for $10 you can get three beers. They had three local breweries that donated. I'm not much of a Beer Drinker but they had American Solaris sour beer which I love.I wish that I had known how popular it would be because I would have gotten all three at once. They ran out after 30 minutes. So that was kind of a bummer. But it was nice outside and the band was great! Super fun event!

Visited the museum for the first time today! I've been to museums around the world, the Louvre, the Vatican Museum, and the Museum of Modern Art. While not to the same size scale, I was very impressed with the collection, the upscale style as well as the informative and helpful staff. This is a definate draw to Tulsa for future visits!
