American Jazz Museum

1616 E. 18th St., Kansas City, MO, 64108

(816) 474-8463 - Venue Website

The sights and sounds of a uniquely American art form come alive at the American Jazz Museum in the Historic 18th & Vine Jazz District. It includes interactive exhibits and films, educational programs, the Changing Gallery, the Blue Room jazz club and the Gem Theater, a 500-seat performing arts center.

Located in the Historic 18th and Vine Jazz District in Kansas City, MO., this is the place where jazz masters such as Charlie Parker, Count Basie, Big Joe Turner, and hundreds of others defined the sounds of the 1920s, 30s, and 40s.

Today, scholars, students, musicians, and fans are drawn here to learn about the legends, honor their legacy, or simply enjoy the best music America has to offer.
