Tahlequah, Okla.
Dedicated October 26, 2007
Partners: Friends of Libraries in Oklahoma (FOLIO) and the Cherokee Nation
Will Rogers wrote to entertain, to enlighten, and to educate. His words were stilled far too soon. The site on which the museum now resides was purchased by Will and Betty Rogers to build their Oklahoma home. It is on a bluff overlooking Claremore. The museum was built as a gift of the people of Oklahoma in memory of their native son.
