Lucille Ball Desi Arnaz Center (Lucille Ball Desi Arnaz Museum)

The Lucille Ball Desi Arnaz Museum will inventory, rehouse, and digitally catalogue approximately 4,500 objects that chronicle the lives and cultural contributions of American entertainers Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz. Spanning nine decades, the collection holds photographs, creative papers, audiovisual recordings, screen-used wardrobe, and personal effects of the comedians. In stewarding the collection, this project will aid in the development of new exhibits and programs as well as increase access to the collection for staff, museum patrons, students, researchers, and the public to foster an appreciation for the history and craft of comedy.
