American Jazz Museum

Michael Muilenburg

Very good museum with lots of historical information and interactive displays. A few of the audio units were not working well. The headphone listening stations were much better. Learned a lot. Lots of things to read on the panels.

Very small museum which highlights Louis Armstrong, and Ella Fitzgerald. There are also samples of their music which you can listen through headphones provided at the stations which are not sanitized between guests. It took us about 40 minutes to get through the whole thing. There is also a video that talks about the 18th and vine district in the lobby.

18th & Vine is an historical district for American and also houses the Negro Baseball Leagues Museum. You should visit with the understanding that American Jazz spans more than 1 area of the Country. Worth a stop to see the Blues influence in Jazz.

I visited the American Jazz Museum today and had a great time. The museum is very affordable, well laid out and provided an outstanding exhibit of American jazz and culture. Also, today was the final day for the Billie Holiday special exhibit, which was amazing. This is a great place to visit if you are in Kansas City Missouri, and gives you an amazing perspective on American history and culture.
