NATIONAL MUSEUM OF AFRICAN AMERICAN MUSIC

In early 2021, a two-decade project was born: a museum dedicated to the legacy of African-American culture in the birth and evolution of American music. There were already excellent museums on the period of slavery and the civil rights struggle on the one hand, and excellent museums on music on the other, but no place that bridged these two universes, which have been intrinsically dependent since their birth.

A fun, interactive museum right across the street from the Ryman Auditorium.
