What do Steve Martin and Kermit the Frog have in common? They both speak English. Oh! And they also both play the banjo. All things relating to “America’s Instrument” are on display at the world-class treasure that is the American Banjo Museum in Bricktown. The ABM features the largest publicly-displayed collection in the world, with more than 300 instruments, including 19th-century-vintage “Minstrel Age” banjos, replicas of primitive instruments used by southern slaves and ultra-fancy Jazz Age banjos from the ’20s and ’30s, among others. It’s well worth a visit.
