TULSA — Tulsa company Flintco has been selected to lead the Vision Tulsa construction project for Gilcrease Museum.

Flintco will work with the City of Tulsa, Gilcrease Museum, Gallagher & Associates, and architects SmithGroup and 1 Architecture on the renovation project.

“Tulsans own the greatest collection of American Art and history outside of that owned by the federal government, and I am excited that Flintco - a world-class Tulsa company that employs our fellow Tulsans - has been selected to construct the revitalized Gilcrease Museum,” Mayor G.T. Bynum said.

Officials say the design phase will begin in the coming months. Improvements will allow for expanded space, a new building facade, a grand entry and great hall, open storage space for additional displays and a dedicated education space.

Voters approved the Vision Tulsa project in 2016, which included the $65 million project for the museum.
