His contribution as an artist also included working enough concerts to equal almost an entire calendar year. Near Queens College in New York City there are collectibles of Louis Armstrong that can be viewed for research or curiosity. The name of the museum is Louis Armstrong House Museum; a beautiful brick building. In 1943, he and his wife Lucille, who was an entertainer herself as a dance performer at the historic Cotton Club also in New York, moved into what is now the location of the museum. The building stands as a memorial to the trumpeter and the interior has been left untouched. The entire house was decorated by his wife and is then a homage to her as well.

On view at the Louis Armstrong Museum in Queens, NY, is his living room, his kitchen, his bedroom, his bathroom and his den with all original detail that looks as if it has been decorated hours ago looking at some of the pictures of the interior.
