In setting up for the installation of a special exhibit to coincide with the 2024 Comanche Nation Fair, the Comanche National Museum and Cultural Center’s gallery will be closed the first three weeks of September.
From Sept. 3-23, the museum gallery, 701 NW Ferris, will be closed for staff to repaint the front gallery and install the upcoming exhibit “Honoring Comanche Royalty,” opening Sept. 24, according to Candy Taylor, museum director.
The museum business offices and gift shop will be open during the renovations.
The public is invited to attend the exhibit opening at 10 a.m. Sept. 24. A short program is planned on the museum’s back patio. Continental breakfast items will be offered and free exhibit T-shirts will be available while supplies last.
The museum will be open for special hours during the fair. Special hours of operation are as followed: 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Sept. 27, 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Sept. 28, and 1 to 5 p.m. on Sept. 29.
“Honoring Comanche Royalty” is an exhibition celebrating the Comanche Nation Princesses. Past and current Comanche princesses have loaned items to the museum for the exhibit.
Comanche Princess Sorority member Jolene Schonchin said there was an overwhelming response from past royalty in offering pieces on loan for display. They will receive the items back at the exhibit’s end.
The exhibit will be on display through Dec. 30. Admission is free.
