If you’ve been looking for an excuse to take a scenic drive through Oklahoma’s Osage Hills, this is it. Woolaroc Museum & Wildlife Preserve is once again celebrating art, heritage, and the American West with its Woolaroc Exhibition & Sale, open now through December 31, 2025.
This exhibit showcases the work of more than 40 nationally recognized artists, bringing together breathtaking paintings and sculptures that capture the spirit of the West — from sweeping prairies and rugged wildlife to the beauty of Native American life and culture.
A Legacy of Art and Adventure
Founded by oilman and philanthropist Frank Phillips, Woolaroc has long stood as a refuge for both wildlife and creativity. The museum’s mission — to preserve the art and history of the American West — comes to life in every corner of this exhibition.
As you walk through the galleries, you’ll see the traditions of Western art evolve with modern expression. From bronze sculptures by Tony Angell that seem ready to gallop off their pedestals to vivid landscapes glowing with Oklahoma sunsets by Charles Fritz, each piece tells a story deeply tied to the land itself.
Art You Can Take Home
Unlike most museum exhibits, the Woolaroc Exhibition & Sale invites you to do more than admire the art — you can purchase it. Every piece not marked “sold” remains available for sale through the end of December, making this event a rare opportunity for collectors and first-time buyers alike to bring a piece of Woolaroc’s legacy home.
The Perfect Seasonal Escape
Whether you visit during the crisp colors of fall or the cozy stillness of winter, the Woolaroc grounds are part of the magic. Explore 3,700 acres of preserved wildlife habitat, encounter bison and elk along the drive, and let the museum’s blend of history, art, and nature transport you to another time.
Don’t forget to stop by the Woolaroc gift shop for local treasures, or warm up with a coffee before wandering through the galleries again — because one visit never feels like enough.
