A third of the exhibit is devoted to lacrosse and stickball, two of the most popular Native American games. Stickball gained historical significance when it was reportedly outlawed in Mississippi and discouraged in Oklahoma to prevent tribes from congregating in groups. Native Americans also enjoyed dice, hand ring and pin, hoop and pole, doubleball, moccasin and board games, all represented in the exhibit. The exhibit, toured by the Oklahoma Museums Association, is sponsored by the Oklahoma Museum of Natural History and the Muscogee Creek Nation. The Conner Museum is open from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Saturday.
Admission is free.
