The vision for this landmark museum addition to the Oklahoma City National Memorial & Museum – Foreword – builds on the chapters of the April 19, 1995 story. Since the 2001 opening of the Museum which is housed within the historic Journal Record Building, visitors have explored the personal stories of those who were killed, those who survived and those changed forever. The number of visitors has increased over the years, and the need for us to continue to evolve alongside societal trends remains as strong as ever.
