My wife and I caught the American Artists, American Stories from the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts, 1776-1976 display at the Philbrook Museum of Art, as it winds down its tour in Tulsa. Impressive, enjoyable and historical. The art, mostly paintings varied in subject matter. Lots of historical portraits, still life, and my favorites real life and landscape. The paintings of George Washington were memorable. What's next?

There are so many reasons why people should visit Philbrook Museum of Art. Although incomplete, these are just a few reasons: amazing museum and art collections, fascinating historical background of the facility, exquisite gardens, and inspirations. The museum was formerly the home of oilman Waite Phillips. It houses over 8,500 works of art. Accompanied the originally 72-room Italian Renaissance-style mansion now museum is 23 acres of exquisite English gardens. Inside this historical villa lies a melting pot of rich international cultures and Tulsa cultures, on full display. Philbrook Museum of Art is a national treasure of Tulsa and is the top attraction of the city. When visiting, it is difficult to not be inspired. I know I have as these are some of the best pictures I have taken of a museum/garden.

Probably one of the most beautiful museums I've ever been to and I've been to museums all over the world. This one definitely has character, a very homey feel, and I loved the fact that this museum used to be a family's home. The gardens have beautiful landscaping, but not overly done. My friend and I came here for the first time on a Saturday mid-morning/afternoon and took our time flowing through each room and exploring the outdoor gardens as well. We went after Halloween time in early November, so there were pumpkins still out by the gazebo, and the weather was beautiful for a stroll outside. There is one room that tells the history of the museum, the founders, their children, and descendants of the namesake of the museum. Surrounding the story and pictures of the founders are post-it notes filled with comments from guests, sketches of the past owners, and more. This is what I mean when I say this place has character, and is truly unique. It's "touchable" and doesn't have too many barriers to the art. It's very interactive!They have outdoor art stations for children and adults to create their own artwork with colored pencils, charcoal, oil pastels and more. I would love to bring my almost 3yo son here and make some beautiful art memories here. I have seen many photos of this famous museum online, but pictures do not do it justice! Even after reading articles about and witnessing Sophia Bush's wedding here through social media, in-person is spectacular! I can't wait to return to Philbrook and bring my family :) Thank you for a memorable experience.

Art in Bloom is an amazing event and this year the bar was raised. The artistry in the various pieces was breathtaking. I can't wait to visit next year to see how this event continues to grow and see all of the talented designers and work created and set up in the beautiful Philbrook.

The only place we got to visit in Tulsa, it was a great choice. Three floors of exceptional artwork, plus a mansion and English garden. A great place to spend the day.

The Philbrook is a beautiful museum in a gorgeous Tulsa neighborhood. There are rotating exhibits throughout the year and plenty of events on the calendar but Art in Bloom is a must see. It happens one weekend in April when the weather is just perfect. You can vote for the flower display that you like the best. The grounds are always impeccable for a peaceful stroll. There's plenty of parking so head over to get your zen on!

What a gem! Was in Tulsa on business travel and had some downtime to explore. I'd been told that the Philbrook was a must-see and I would agree. The museum has a nice open layout with beautiful artwork across three levels. I went on a weekday and it was quiet and very open to spend time with the art. Logistically, there are elevators (or stairs!) and some areas for seating (i.e. benches) in case you need a quick break. Overall, it's a nice flow to the space. The gardens...now that is the moment! Such a gorgeous space. Definitely gave me Europe vibes and some of the gardens I've visited. Loved it! Highly recommend the Philbrook when you're in Tulsa!

Fair share of European, African, American, modern and contemporary, Native American collections. I think my favorite was the watercolor section where on a bench they have a box of magnifying glasses. You can go over to the art on the wall and see the fine detail of the artists water color strokes and details. The garden was beautiful. The only problem was it was just too hot to stay out there for too long, so I'm looking forward to returning and spending the day out in the garden. The home itself is amazing lots of different things to see and explore. The gift shop was nice to have a little fridge and for a dollar you can buy a bottle of water and some snacks that was refreshing because it was really hot out.*Military ID gets your whole party in for free currently.
