Park staff opened the new visitor center to the public on August 25, 2007. Currently, the new building features several temporary exhibits, a well-stocked Western National Parks Association bookstore, and the park's 27-minute film Destiny at Dawn. The museum exhibits will be installed later this winter. A special event marking the opening of the Washita exhibits has been postponed until the fall of 2008.
