Recently, Tulsa's Gilcrease Museum announced that it's making available online three important collections within its vast holdings. The museum is now closed as it undergoes large-scale renovation and reconstruction, yet the public can, of course, continue to access thousands of its art works and historic items virtually. The three newly-posted online collections are grouped as follows: The 1921 Tulsa Race Massacre, Indigenous Paintings, and The Work of Thomas and Mary Nimmo Moran. Our two guests give us the full story on this edition of StudioTulsa; they are Susan Neal, the Executive Director at Gilcrease Museum, and Laura Fry, the museum's Senior Curator and Curator of Art.
