GOVERNANCE

Who runs the show

The Museum of the Great Plains Authority operates as a municipal/public trust with a 501(c)(3) status.  We're governed by a board.

 

The trust has thirteen seats. Directors serve three-year terms.  One-third (or so) of the seats are reelected or change annually.  Officers serve one-year terms.

​

The trustees are more delightful (less boring) than this makes them sound.  Good eggs, all of them.

Please note:  Most areas of the museum will close to the public in mid-August 2026 for major building repairs.  We anticipate resuming full operation in April 2028.

Support for the Museum of the Great Plains provided in part by the City of Lawton and the City of Lawton Hotel-Motel Tax Fund.
