Joseph H. Williams Tallgrass Prairie Preserve
Visitor Center Schedule

The Tallgrass Prairie Visitor Center is staffed by members of the Tallgrass Docent Program. Docents reserve shifts when they will be staffing the center. If a date has "reserved" entries it means that a docent(s) will be staffing the center and that the center will be open.


The schedule can change at the last minute due to a variety of reasons, so check the schedule just prior to your trip. On the day of your visit you can call the visitor center number (918-287-3623) after 10:00 a.m. to verify that a docent is on duty. If you plan to bring a large number of people (tour group, school group, etc.), please contact Kay Krebbs at 918-287-4803 or kkrebbs@tnc.org to schedule so we can prepare for your visit.

The visitor center will be closed on Thanksgiving Day and from December 22nd, 2022 until February 28, 2023 .


Visitor center hours in December will be from 10:00 a.m. until 3:00 p.m.
