The Seminole Nation Museum is a private, non-profit organization that documents and interprets the history and culture of the Seminole Nation of Oklahoma and the people and events that make its capital, Wewoka, one of the most historically significant and culturally diverse communities in Oklahoma.
The Museum was established in 1974 by the citizens of Wewoka as the culmination of a plan proposed almost a decade earlier during the 1966 Wewoka Centennial Celebration. It is housed in a beautiful native stone building built by the WPA in 1937. Originally designed to serve as the local community center, the facility now contains a comprehensive research library, art gallery, arts and crafts center/gift shop and almost six-thousand square feet of exhibit space revealing the unique heritage of these distinctive peoples.
Through the use of select artifacts, historic images and interpretive exhibits, the events and stories that shaped the home of the Seminoles for more than a century are chronicled in a captivating, educational and enlightening experience at the Seminole Nation Museum.
