Bix Lives Award Ceremony — Bix Beiderbecke Museum and Archive

THE BIX MUSEUM IS MOVING!

Work is underway to relocate the museum! Over the past year, our Board of Directors has been working hard toward finding a new home for the museum that is highly visible and away from future flooding. A location has been found, and we have begun a Capital Campaign to make this a reality. This is why the Bix Museum needs YOUR help for the coming year! Relocating the museum requires support. Our new home will make us more sustainable, better protect our collections, and make Bix’s legacy more visible in the Quad Cities. To ensure the success of our move, the Bix Museum needs to raise $120,000 by the end of March 2025. Our new location is a ground-level space in Downtown Davenport, just across the street from the current museum. We are excited to share designs for the new space with you very soon!
