The Lucy and Desi museum the right in the middle of Jamestown, city center. It’s right down the block from The National Comedy Center.
If you visit on the weekend, parking is free on the street. You can also park free at The National Comedy Center’s parking lot, which is a couple blocks away. If you visit during the week, there are parking meters.
The museum itself is split between two buildings, but they’re right next to each other on the same block. The first building is about Lucy’s TV show and her claim to fame, and the second building houses information about her life. Both buildings have gift shops.
The museum also has a recreation of her TV show set, with the living room, kitchen, and the California set as well for those episodes.
There’s a lot of memorabilia, props, costumes that she wore, and also her Mercedes.
You could easily spend two hours or more at this museum. Unfortunately, we didn’t have enough time or allotted enough time because a staff member at The National Comedy Center told us that it would only take us an hour to go through. But that was so far from the truth! We actually spent two hours, but actually needed more time than that.
We would totally go back to this museum since we felt like we missed some things. And it is so fascinating to learn that Lucy had some ground breaking ideas that came to fruition on her TV show. She was the first one to incorporate her own pregnancy into a TV show, and that was something during the 1950s. There was also other technology groundbreaking ideas that she and her staff implemented that is now used today in television.
