A weekly update on the ins and outs of the museum. We showcase the "Artifact(s) of the Month" every 1st Wednesday. We highlight the "This Month in History..." every 2nd Wednesday. We see the sights of "Then and Now" in Sapulpa every 3rd Wednesday. And we share our moments in the museum world every 4th Wednesday.

What Have We Been Up To This Month:
This summer we have had the honor and privilege to have a summer intern with us. As a history teacher working on her Masters degree, Amy plans to dedicate her internship to the study of Indigenous People and the culture in Sapulpa. Teaming up with our Curator, they will organize the story of the Euchee people and the Euchee Boarding School.

If you have any stories, memories, images of the Euchee school, tribe, and culture, please email the historical society at [email protected]
