Rock & Roll Hall of Fame and Museum

Since its opening in 1995, the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum in Cleveland has established itself as the preeminent home for the celebration and study of rock and roll music. Exhibits, educational programs and performance events have made the Museum a mecca for fans, scholars and the artists themselves. Research shows that the Museum is the most popular and best-attended hall of fame in the country.

When you first step inside the large glass building, the hall is a feast for the eye. One of the main attractions is a full rock-n-roll mega store of memorabilia, posters, artwork, clothing and souvenirs. There are also some equally remarkable interactive exhibits, films, videos and priceless and poignant artifacts, and serves as host of the permanent Hall of Fame exhibit.

In addition to the permanent exhibits, the Museum stages a number of temporary exhibits throughout the year, including large-scale exhibits that occupy the top two levels of the building. The Museum also produces educational programs for the public that include concerts, lectures, panel discussions, film series, teacher education and other events.

Speaking of the building, it is a stunning piece of daring architecture designed by internationally renowned architect I. M. Pei. Inside the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum.
