About Bob Dylan Center

The Bob Dylan Center opened in May 2022 in the Tulsa Arts District to show material from Dylan's archive, a collection of more than 100,000 items. You get an audioguide and headphones at the door and move through the galleries at your own pace, past handwritten lyrics, rare recordings and personal photographs. Exhibits rotate, so the displays change between visits. The Woody Guthrie Center, run by the same foundation, is nearby, and a visit usually takes a couple of hours.
