In Kansas City's historic 18th and Vine district, this museum preserves the history of Black baseball and the people who shaped it. Its setting also connects a sports visit with a wider neighbourhood important to the city's African-American cultural life.

Take time with the historical interpretation rather than focusing only on famous players. The museum shares a building with the American Jazz Museum, but confirm each institution's admission and opening arrangements separately.
