Oklahoma City National Memorial & Museum Marks 25 Years of Remembrance

On Thursday, Feb 19, 2026, the memorial marked its 25th anniversary with free admission sponsored by Cox and offered Connect with Collections programming.
The anniversary honored the April 19, 1995 bombing and its 168 victims, including 19 children, as the museum upholds its mission to remember those killed, survivors, and those changed forever.
The museum spans two floors with 10 chapters, and the site draws 250,000 visitors annually, with free admission today as part of Cox Community Day.
Museum staff urged visitors to reserve free tickets online, noting hours are 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., as visitors responded emotionally and expressed deep feelings, with one saying 'It kind of broke my heart'.
Emphasizing future outreach, museum leaders cited technology upgrades, with Skye Conley stating the focus is on reaching new generations, and the museum was dedicated on Feb. 19, 2001 by George W. Bush and Laura Bush.
