What families say

Families consistently praise the hands-on setup here—interactive tablets, listening stations, and films let kids engage with jazz history even without any music background, and staff (Muriel gets a specific shoutout) go out of their way to connect with young musicians and answer questions. Plan for a solid chunk of time to explore exhibits on Charlie Parker, Ella Fitzgerald, and Duke Ellington, plus the "In the Mix" mixing room. One reviewer noted nearby construction meant parking a couple blocks away, so budget extra time for that.
