Join us for a baby storytime at Oklahoma Contemporary Arts Center! A skilled early childhood librarian will lead babies and their caregivers through an exciting art-based storytime. After meeting in the Early Childhood Studio to meet, play, and chat, babies and their grownups will head upstairs to the gallery for stories, songs, rhymes, fingerplays, and more! This is an excellent opportunity to expose young children to visual art. After the program, families are welcome to explore the rest of the galleries.

While this event is free and open to the public, reservations are required.

Best for ages 0-24 months. We recommend one parent or caregiver per child. Supervision of children is required in the galleries.

Join the fun as we take a walk with Principal Urban Forester Leigh Martin to learn more about local trees, which host many of our pollinators. We will log our findings in the Bickham-Rudkin Park Virtual BioBlitz, which is part of the nationwide Parks for Pollinators campaign in September.

Come discover the amazing diversity of Oklahoma moths. We’ll start in the classroom where we will learn about moth species from local experts, then we will venture outside to the museum’s back yard to see these beautiful creatures up close. Flashlights will be provided for use during the program. Participants may stay through the end of the program, or choose to leave when they are ready.
