The first phase of legacy bricks at The Outsiders House have been installed, and they look terrific! Seeing all the wonderful and unique inscriptions are heartwarming indeed, and will be enjoyed for generations to come. Thank you to all who purchased their brick.
We are taking orders for the next round of personalized legacy bricks, which are very important to the museum, as we prepare for the eventual return to scheduled school tours, as well as our weekend public tours. If you were thinking of placing your order, we would appreciate it now more than ever.
I know that seeing your name etched outside of The Outsiders House will make each trip to the museum that much more memorable.
Enshrining your place in Outsiders history with a permanent tribute or message, for those of you around the globe, will go a long way to ensuring the long term survival of The Outsiders House Museum.
Thank you!
Stay safe and well, and Stay Gold!

In the early ‘80s, Oscar winning director Francis Ford Coppola came to Tulsa, OK to catapult S.E. Hinton’s memorable characters off the pages of The Outsiders book onto the big screen. Rather than use a Hollywood back lot, the film maker and crew transformed an ordinary Tulsa neighborhood into a fully functioning movie set. In 1983, The Outsiders was released, featuring a cast of young, talented actors who would go on to become household names.
The director and film crews departed, the actors and props scattered, and the local extras went back to their day to day lives. But, on a quiet Tulsa street corner, the iconic “Curtis Brothers House,” the modest bungalow where the scrappy, close-knit Greasers lived, loved, fought and reconciled, remained a tangible testament to the cinematic legend.
Now available – official, limited edition Outsiders House Museum merchandise. Check back often for new additions to the current line of t-shirts, mugs, pins and more.
