The Fred Jones Jr. Museum of Art is a university art museum in Norman, Oklahoma, on the campus of the University of Oklahoma. It is also known as the University of Oklahoma Art Museum, and it sits at 555 Elm Avenue, Norman, OK 73019.
What you will see
The museum's collections span several areas, and a visit can take in more than one of them:
- Contemporary art, reflecting current work in painting, sculpture and other media.
- French Impressionism, a body of work that draws many visitors who enjoy the movement's light and colour.
- Native American pottery, which offers a close look at ceramic traditions from Native American communities.
Planning your visit
As a university museum, it suits anyone interested in art who wants a focused visit rather than a very large survey. Because it belongs to a university, the setting is a campus, so it pairs naturally with a walk around the grounds and a look at the surrounding college town of Norman. For current opening times, admission details and any exhibitions on display, it is worth calling the museum directly at +1-405-325-3272 before you go.
