Muddy Waters MOJO Museum

REBUILDING THE ORIGINAL HOUSE OF BLUES Bringing Muddy Waters’ music to life in his legendary Chicago home Imagine sitting in a room filled with music makers. Their creativity comes alive as they jam with each other trying new riffs – testing what their instruments can do. They’ve come to learn, to be inspired, and to be in the room where music history was made. They’ve come to the Muddy Waters MOJO Museum in Bronzeville, a neighborhood bursting with stories of cultural, political, and social luminaries who made – and changed – history. This is a place for music, for learning, for events and to be in community with others who feel the power of Chicago’s original electric blues, pioneered by Muddy Waters. MUDDY WATERS MOJO MUSEUM The MOJO Museum board of directors envisions creating a museum and cultural center dedicated to sharing Waters' music and inspiring future generations of musicians. The eponymous nonprofit was formed in 2019 to implement this vision by garnering support, establishing partnerships, and finding necessary resources to bestow upon the legendary music maker the honor and respect he deserves. With your donation, we can honor Muddy Waters and celebrate Chicago blues properly. The nonprofit, Muddy Waters MOJO Museum Inc., was established in November 2019 by Chandra Cooper as a critical step forward towards the museum’s establishment. Its mission is to preserve and protect the Muddy Waters legacy, house, and story through authentic educational experiences, music inspiration, and community services. The nonprofit’s vision is that all generations will be empowered and inspired to keep blues music alive, and to celebrate the Muddy Waters house, history, his legacy, and sound. The organization has a dedicated Board of Directors with relevant knowledge and experience to create the museum’s programming.
