The Trailblazer Bags Program consists of a theme-designated
backpack, a variety of activities to enjoy in the museum or at home and book called
ART PAGES, which offers a small sampling of art works from our collection related
to the specific topic. The ART PAGES booklet includes lots of different information
on each art piece, the artist and art techniques. Bags also include a subject-appropriate
Gilcrease Journal, touch objects from the Gilcrease Education Collection, samples
of various artistic materials and techniques and sketching materials.
In 2007 the Trailblazer Bag Program received the Oklahoma Museum Association
award for excellence in the category of educational programs.
Generously supported by Spirit AeroSystems.
How "art" SmART are you? Find out by collecting our new SmART Cards. Free and available

in Gilcrease Museum's collection and give you fun facts you might not know. There
is a different card each week — collect all 52!
