The Jim Irsay Collection is a collection of musical instruments, American history artifacts, and popular culture items collected by Indianapolis Colts owner Jim Irsay. The collection is heavily focused on guitars associated with rock music, but also contains items such as historic manuscripts, film artifacts, and sports memorabilia. Since 2021, the collection has been touring the United States as part of an ongoing traveling exhibit and concert series.[1][2]
Although the collection does not have a permanent exhibit location, its contents have been displayed in museums such as the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, the British Library, the American Writers Museum, Lowell National Historical Park, the Eiteljorg Museum of American Indians and Western Art, and the Indiana State Museum, among others.[3][4][5][6]
