VFW Hall, Kansas City

Function hall (VFW Post 18) that was a popular punk venue in the early-mid 1980s, hosting artists including R.E.M., Hüsker Dü, and Minor Threat. Built as a Presbyterian church in 1886, it was purchased by the VFW in the 1950s and sold to the Vietnam Veterans Support Foundation in the 1980s, at which point it became Union Hill Veterans Hall. The space presently operates as the Union Hill Event Hall.
