Musical Instrument Museum
Musical Instrument Museum Now Open! This is the first global instrument museum in Phoenix, Arizona. The MIM collection includes instruments from nearly 200 countries and territories in the world. Some larger countries such as India, China, Russia, the United States, Congo, and others have multiple displays with subsections for different types of ethnic, folk, and tribal music. Museum guests will enjoy a close encounter with the instruments themselves, enhanced by state-of-the art audio and video that bring to life the sounds and sights of these instruments as experienced in their cultures of origin. The building also contains a 299 seat performance theater. The MIM welcomes the young and the old, the uninitiated and the knowledgeable, to explore and experience the rich diversity of the world’s music and musical instruments. Location The museum is located in north Phoenix, on the southwest corner of East Mayo Boulevard and North Tatum Boulevard, just south of Arizona Loop 101. MIM is surrounded by restaurants, movie theaters, and other interesting sites offering activities for families and guests who would like to combine the MIM experience with other recreational opportunities. http://www.themim.org/
