Bob Marley Museum
Well supported
Marley's home and studio at 56 Hope Road, Kingston, bought in 1975 and operated as a museum since 1986. It housed Tuff Gong before the move to Marcus Garvey Drive, and it is where the December 1976 shooting took place two days before the Smile Jamaica concert — the bullet marks are preserved. Jamaica's most visited music site.

Museums preserve context
Museums, culture yards and digital archives preserve artefacts, exhibition narratives and public memory that help verify artist, place and scene histories.
