Apr 27 Saturday
Calling all beginner birders! Are you interested in bird watching but have no idea where to begin? Join us for our Bird Walk for Beginners event on Saturday, April 27th at 8 a.m.
Our Bird Walk for Beginners event aims to lessen the learning curve for new birders. Attendees will go on a guided walk of the Mollie Spencer Farm with experienced birders from the Oklahoma City Audubon Society. The expert birders will help attendees find birds and discuss the basics of birding, including how to listen for bird calls and properly use binoculars.
Attendees are strongly encouraged to bring their own binoculars to this event. A limited number of binoculars will be available on a first come, first served basis.
This event will involve a lot of walking, so please prepare accordingly!

"Magnificent Beauty: Georgia O’Keeffe and the Art of the Flower" examines explorations of flowers in painting and photography by O’Keeffe and Imogen Cunningham, highlighting their unique interpretations of the traditional subject matter.
O’Keeffe redefined the tradition of floral still-life painting by incorporating techniques of photography (a relatively new medium in the early twentieth century) into her works, choosing to depict the subject cropped and at close range to focus on color and form. While Cunningham also portrayed flowers in close-up, her photographs instead call attention to the play of light and shadow as well as the subject’s intricate details, captured with precision. Magnificent Beauty demonstrates how each artist transformed the traditional subject with a modernist, and at times abstracted, take on the natural world.
The Sam Noble Museum is excited to announce a new temporary exhibit aimed at teaching kids and families all about the super-powered world of bugs. Bug Squad features kid-friendly animatronic mascots and tons of interactive, hands-on exhibits and activities.
This unique traveling exhibit can be described as a full sensory experience with active spaces for kids and families to play. Each of the Bug Squad’s heroic characters was created to represent a variety of abilities, ethnicities and body types, each with their own unique storyline that describes their super abilities and unique traits. In addition to highlighting strengths or flying abilities, the Bug Squad members represent traits such as accepting, investigative, team-builders and optimism.
Exhibit highlights include the Spider Web Escape area with a slide, the Ant Colony Climber and an opportunity to experience (virtually) what it’s like to fly like a dragonfly in the Dragonfly Drone. Families can compare the way insects communicate by sound and light, and explore how colors and lights function in nature. The exhibit is produced by Omaha Children’s Museum and presented by the Sam Noble Oklahoma Museum of Natural History.
The exhibit opens February 10 and ends April 28.
