Martin Guitar Museum Unveils Joan Baez Exhibit
The Martin Guitar Museum's Joan Baez exhibit.
The Martin Guitar Museum has announced the grand opening of a new exhibit celebrating the life and musical legacy of musician Joan Baez, marking the first time a museum exhibit will be dedicated solely to her guitars and original artwork.
A cultural icon and folk music pioneer, Baez has inspired generations with her music, commitment to social justice and dedication to making the world a better place. The Martin Guitar Museum has paid tribute to Baez by hosting this exhibit, featuring a collection of instruments, artwork, memorabilia and personal items from Baez’s career.
The exhibit takes visitors on a journey through her life’s work, from her early interest in the arts through her impact on popular music, civil rights, anti-war movements and humanitarian causes.
The exhibit includes Baez’s 1929 Martin 0-45 and signature prototype, original paintings and drawings, rare photographs and tour memorabilia, handwritten lyrics, letters, setlists and more. The exhibit will be open to the public through April 2024.
