Did you know that April is National Poetry Month?

To celebrate, a few of our museum staff have composed haiku- inspired by the beautiful Japanese art form and the museum that we love.

Please enjoy our modest literary efforts, then leave us one of your own using the form at the bottom of this page! We will take entries through the month of April, then museum staff will vote on a winner to be mailed our prize!

We can’t wait to read your poems describing your thoughts, feelings or impressions of the OJAC.

Erin Whitmore, Education Director

Unexpected find.

A west Texas Oasis

of art and culture

*

Through another’s lens

We see visions by others

In a mark, a stroke

*

Seek inspiration

amid oil, wind, and cattle

Art is essential

*

Cells repurposed to

inspire Creativity;

Art for All of us 

Our museum is a

way to see the whole world from

your west Texas home

*

Preserving unique

community history

through the Nail Archives

*

Diverse Collections

‘doing time’ at an Old Jail

wait for your visit

*

Each week we welcome

visitors from near and far;

Always worth the trip
