Extremely overpriced for the relevance on the collection. You’d think they’d invest in renovating the hideous building,but get inside and you’ll see how dated everything is Oil town is not for culture

Parking is tricky so I'd recommend taking transit or walking a few blocks. Spend at least a couple of hours. Fun for all ages
