Grammy Museum Mississippi sets new opening date

gmm_exhibit-3aCLEVELAND, Miss. (AP) — The new grand opening date for the Grammy Museum Mississippi in Cleveland will be March 5-6.

The Clarion-Ledger reports the opening had originally been planned for this fall, but the intricacy of its complex exhibits delayed the completion date.

The Grammy Museum Mississippi will be the first Grammy Museum built outside of Los Angeles; its opening will follow the 58th annual Grammy Awards, held Feb. 15.

The museum is built and will be operated by the nonprofit Cleveland Music Foundation in association with the Grammy Museum at L.A. Live and The Recording Academy.

The 27,000-square-foot Grammy Museum Mississippi is located on the Delta State University Campus, which is also home to the Delta Music Institute, the state’s only accredited music industry studies program.
