Musical Instrument Museum

The Musical Instrument Museum provides an opportunity to learn about the music and musical instruments of many different cultures across the world. One of the brightest spots is The Experience Gallery, where visitors of all ages get to play many of the types of instruments on display elsewhere in the museum. The Artist Gallery is also a visual treat where photographs and memorabilia from world-renowned musicians are available for viewing. Also of note is the Cafe with it's own chef and staff who offer extraordinary global culinary delights and international and child-friendly options. The gift shop offers a wide variety of musical opportunities. A thumb piano similar to this board piano went home with me for met granddaughter, Zoe. It was wonderful to be surrounded by music in its many forms for the afternoon. I highly recommend  spending time at the Musical Instrument Museum in Scottsdale.  www.theMIM.org
