The experience can be enjoyed by all generations and we look forward to continuing to spread Daddy’s music and message to the globe,” says Cedella Marley, CEO of Bob Marley group of companies.
“It’s an honor to be involved in the development and curation of the Bob Marley One Love Experience. We hope that fans of Bob’s can come together and enjoy this exhibit and take a bit of positivity away from it and sprinkle that back into the world. Bob’s legacy should be celebrated not only for his music but also for his ever-lasting impact on culture and humanity,” says Jonathan Shank, CEO Of Terrapin Station, and director and producer of The Bob Marley One Love Experience.
Fans will venture through the exhibition, greeted by different elements of Bob Marley’s multi-faceted life, the One Love Music Room will commemorate Bob Marley’s achievements through accolades and giant art installations.
