The Arts Garage is a literary and contemporary performance venue for budding and emerging artists. The 175 patron-capacity venue combine restaurant, café and bar with theater and performance entertainment. The venue lends itself to artists who are fusing ideas across the media of music, dance, spoken word, animation, video gamers, fashion,  engineering/architecture designs/installations, comedy, theater, catharsis, film, and a host of other audio and visual performance & design installations.  Promoters and event organizers can book the venue for private parties, book/CD releases, festivals, pre and post event parties, speaking engagements, workshops, forums and other noteworthy artistic, social and cultural events.

The Arts Garage represents a remarkable range of audio and visual arts and performances, offering a two (2) story building - in a mix of several vacant lots. The vacant lots provide ample space for eclectic mix of indoor and outdoor audio and visual art exhibits, vending, performances and festivals for 1,500 plus outdoor audience capacity.  Contemporary artists, whatever pedigree, can make full use of the artistic environment The Arts Garage seeks to create.  In all, we encourage a fusion of tradition and innovation, bridging and, or abridging the intersection between multimedia – audio, visual, video and design technology.

The Arts Garage an initiative that is shaped by you (a blank canvass), one that will always remain a “work in progress”.  Patrons and event organizers alike will no doubt enjoy and participate in audio, visual and performance arts and academics.

Welcome to The Arts Garage - A work of art so potent.
