Some of the finest examples of North American Indian art and artifacts extant can be seen at the Museum of the Red River in Idabel, Oklahoma. The Museum opened its doors in 1975 to house objects dating from 10,000 years ago to historic times, that were being discovered locally. The Museum’s collections gradually expanded to include objects from southeastern Oklahoma, northeastern Texas, and southwestern Arkansas: the “Caddoan Archaeological Area”. The Caddo. had been active in this area from about 900 to 1700, and their artifacts were well represented. The early collections also included artifacts from the Choctaw, who had been forcibly transferred into Oklahoma from Mississippi in the 1830’s.
Today, the Museum of the Red River has much more to offer visitors. Among its present collections, comprising over 15,000 objects, there are important Precolumbian holdings, ethnographic works and contemporary native arts and crafts from throughout the Americas, as well as representative items from native cultures in Africa, East Asia, and the Pacific Islands. Visitors to the Museum can also study geological displays and see the forty-foot long cast skeleton of a large predatory dinosaur, Acrocanthosaurus atokensis, (dubbed “Acro”) discovered twelve miles east of the Museum.
The Museum of the Red River operates as part of the Herron Foundation, a non-profit Oklahoma corporation. The separately incorporated Idabel Museum Society serves as the Museum’s membership and support organization.
The Museum is located at 812 East Lincoln Road, on the South Highway 70 Bypass, in Idabel, McCurtain County, Oklahoma.
