A crowd gathers for the groundbreaking of what will be the Oklahoma Museum of Popular Culture in Tulsa. It’s taken more than a decade to get to this point. One of those behind the idea of OKPOP is Dr. Bob Blackburn, Director of the Oklahoma Historical Society. He says the exhibits will inspire future generations of Oklahomans and will highlight the historical influence our citizens have made to popular culture around the world.
The Museum, across the street from historic Cain’s Ballroom, will open in two years.
