The non-profit organization’s Mobile Museum is a 38-foot Winnebago that is bringing music history to schools, communities, and venues across Long Island. Its mission is to celebrate, recognize, and preserve the exceptional music history of the Long Island region for this generation and many generations to come.
The debut exhibit "On the Record" includes videos from Hall of Fame's inductees and donated memorabilia. The walls are covered with concert posters and the floor is a collage of some 200 albums digitally printed on vinyl.
Notable keepsakes include Billy Joel's gold record, a signed guitar from Twisted Sister and the Congressional Medal of Honor given to Harry Chapin. Some of music's most memorable have been a part of Long Island's local landscape. Louie Armstrong, Simon and Garfunkel and Pat Benatar all have ties to either Nassau, Suffolk, Brooklyn or Queens.
