Visiting with Children

Gilcrease has three fun, interactive spaces that bring out the kid in every visitor. Whether you are trying to get in touch with your inner child, or if you are spending time with a child, be sure to stop in and visit the Creative Learning Center, Kids Site and the Kravis Discovery Center. All spaces are open during regular museum hours.

Trailblazer Bags

Trailblazer Bags are fun, multimedia educational bags, which are available free at the museum's front entrance.  They are the perfect way for visitors of all ages to become acquainted with the museum's collections and are designed with children in mind. Check one out at the beginning of your museum visit, and simply return upon exit.
