As a life long I Love Lucy fan this was the highlight of our time in Jamestown. It was so cool to get to see so many artifacts from the shows including costumes, props, and of course the replica living room/Hollywood Apt. Getting to see that living room in person and in color was great, and even better was that you are able to pay to get to walk into the apartment and take pictures! Loved seeing all the memorabilia and videos of those who worked on the show. Getting to do the Vitameatavegamin commercial was also a fun little surprise. I also went a bit crazy in the gift shop, but I regret nothing!

We spent a fun couples of hours at the museum seeing all the memorabilia and reading all the information it has to offer. There are even sets that were constructed to look like the actual sets used in the show. More interestingly, it provides quite a bit of background information on Lucy and Desi and how events led up to the I Love Lucy show. You tour on your own. Masks are suggested. Do check out the website so you can buy tickets in advance (you must reserve a day and time) and particularly to understand where you can park your vehicle since there is no parking by the museum except metered curb parking. After the museum, you can also drive by the places where Lucy grew up and actually go to visit her grave in the Lakeview Cemetery.

I was at this museum 6+ Yrs ago & I an SO HAPPY to see how wonderfully improved it is now! I think it does s good job going thru all of Lucy & Desi accomplishments & life. Its not too much or too little. I see they will be adding more to the ‘home life’ section & i’ll look forward to seeing that as well. Thankyou
