DECOPOLIS Tulsa Art Deco Museum occupies a corner unit at 1401 E 11th St on Tulsa’s stretch of Route 66, inside the larger DECOPOLIS Discovitorium in the city’s Meadow Gold District. It’s a free, self-guided mini museum built around Tulsa’s Jazz Age architectural legacy, drawing art lovers, architecture enthusiasts, and road-trippers tracing the Mother Road through Oklahoma.
Inside, an Art Deco themed town square holds a dense collection of period artifacts, signage, and curated “fun facts” about 1920s and ’30s Tulsa, a city that still claims one of the highest concentrations of Art Deco buildings in the country. Rotating exhibits keep the space current for repeat visitors, while the surrounding Discovitorium blends gift shop browsing with immersive, photo-friendly displays. Staff hand out a free Downtown Deco District walking map, pointing visitors toward the Philcade, Philtower, Boston Avenue Methodist Church, and other landmark buildings within reach of downtown.
Visitor Highlights & Practical Info
Visits run quick, typically 20 to 40 minutes, making this an easy add-on to a Route 66 drive or a Meadow Gold District stop. Weekday mornings tend to be quietest. Grab the walking map before heading downtown, since the museum’s exhibits set up context for the buildings you’ll see a few minutes away by car. Admission is free, with the gift shop offering Tulsa and Deco-themed souvenirs (source: [DECOPOLIS](https://decopolis.net/)).
