Set in 1960s Paris\, the film follows two musicians—Ram Bowen (Paul Newman)\, a trombonist and composer\, and Eddie Scott (Sidney Poitier)\, a saxophonist—pursuing success amid the vibrant jazz scene. Louis Armstrong appears as trumpeter Wild Man Moore\, delivering rare and electrifying on-screen performances. \nThe June 19 screening will be followed by a special conversation with Louis Armstrong House Museum Historian Hyland Harris\, featuring archival materials highlighting Armstrong’s influential film career. The June 21 encore screening will take place in the Bartos Screening Room. \nFeaturing an Oscar- and Grammy-nominated soundtrack by Duke Ellington\, Paris Blues is a landmark jazz film recommended for ages 13 and up (includes themes of drug use). \nJuneteenth commemorates the official end of slavery in the U.S. During a time of segregation\, jazz served as a vital form of resistance and expression in Black communities\, including New Orleans\, Louis Armstrong’s birthplace. \nTicket Information:Tickets can be purchased online and picked up at the Museum of the Moving Image admissions desk. All seating is general admission. A $1.50 transaction fee applies to online orders. Admission fees may be applied toward same-day membership purchases. \nPhoto credit: Sam Shaw / Shaw Family Archives Ltd.

Inspired by the collage art of Louis Armstrong\, this free workshop invites you to dive into the vibrant world of collage-making and storytelling. Bring together images\, textures\, and text\, and animate your story to create something uniquely your own.  \nThis workshop is inspired by the artistic excellence of jazz legend Louis Armstrong\, who was not only a musical icon but also a prolific collage artist. He used photographs\, letters\, promotional materials\, newspaper articles\, and more to create art on the walls of his home\, in scrapbooks\, and on more than 500 reel-to-reel tape boxes.  \nThis program is presented as part of MoMI’s Celebrate Juneteenth. Juneteenth is a holiday which commemorates the official end of slavery in the U.S. During a period of legal segregation\, jazz was an important form of resistance and expression\, originating in Black communities of New Orleans where Louis Armstrong was born.  URL:https://www.louisarmstronghouse.org/event-details/louis-armstrong-collage-animation-workshop/ LOCATION:Museum of the Moving Image\, 36-01 35th Ave\, Queens\, NY\, 11106\, United States ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://lahm.sfo3.digitaloceanspaces.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/05/06194425/Collage-Animation-Workshop-wesbite.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="Louis Armstrong House Museum":MAILTO:rsvp@louisarmstronghouse.org END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
