Over time, collections of antiquities, significant artistic achievements, and celebrations of the surreal and creative have been housed safely and placed on display in museums around the world. Due to Covid-19, there is a strong possibility that one out of every three of these hallowed homes of our history could be shut down forever, being forced to sell their invaluable works of art to private collectors, never to be displayed for all to see again.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.aam-us.org\/2020\/07\/22\/united-states-may-lose-one-third-of-all-museums-new-survey-shows\/\">American Alliance of Museums<\/a>, over 12,000 Museums nationwide have been closed down due to the Coronavirus pandemic, and just as alarmingly, 90% of the museums that have been steadfast enough to survive only have enough to continue normal operations for 12 months or less.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As the home to over 25 museums in the city alone, <a href=\"https:\/\/wearememphis.com\/\">Memphis<\/a> has some of the most important museums in the country within its city limits. Places that sing the songs of the past, hallowed halls where the art and music of our beautiful city have been celebrated for generations may not survive to share their stories for much longer. The only way to save our history is to donate what we can, and visit as many times as possible, as funding for these institutions comes mainly from donations and ticket sales. The following is a list of all of the&nbsp; Museums in Memphis, where to visit them, and most importantly, how to Donate to them. This pandemic may have taken away so much, but we will persevere. We must all come together to save our identity, and the history that defines our city, and our nation.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Listed in Alphabetical Order<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\" id=\"h-art-museum-of-the-university-of-memphis\">Art Museum of the University of Memphis<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong>Donate:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.memphis.edu\/development\/waystogive\/index.php\">https:\/\/www.memphis.edu\/development\/waystogive\/index.php<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong>Visit:<\/strong> 3750 Norriswood Ave, Memphis, TN 38152<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\" id=\"h-belz-museum-of-asian-and-judaic-art\">Belz Museum of Asian and Judaic Art<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong>Donate:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/belzmuseum.org\/\">https:\/\/belzmuseum.org\/visitor-info\/ <\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong>Visit:<\/strong> 119 S Main St, Memphis, TN 38103<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\" id=\"h-blues-hall-of-fame\">Blues Hall of Fame<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"576\" height=\"421\" src=\"https:\/\/wearememphis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Blues-Hall-of-Fame.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6684\" style=\"width:432px;height:316px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wearememphis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Blues-Hall-of-Fame.jpg 576w, https:\/\/wearememphis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Blues-Hall-of-Fame-300x219.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 576px) 100vw, 576px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong>Donate: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/secure.blues.org\/np\/clients\/blues\/donation.jsp?forwardedFromSecureDomain=1&amp;campaign=5\">https:\/\/secure.blues.org\/np\/clients\/blues\/donation.jsp?forwardedFromSecureDomain=1&amp;campaign=5<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong>Visit:<\/strong> 421 S Main St, Memphis, TN 38103<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\" id=\"h-burkle-estate\">Burkle Estate<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong>Donate<\/strong>:<a href=\"http:\/\/www.slavehavenmemphis.com\/contact\">http:\/\/www.slavehavenmemphis.com\/contact<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong>Visit:<\/strong> 826 N.
