The Blue Room
The Blue Room is an intimate space that has historically only been accessible for live performances, film screenings, poetry readings, and art shows, but now, they’re open to the public weekly every Thursday, Friday, and Saturday evening. While enjoying craft cocktails, a bottle of neighborhood brew, or a pretzel from hometown heroes Fatbelly, guests are welcome to lounge in their dreamlike, cornerless blue space, escape the bustle of the city on their lush outdoor patio, and capture the occasion in their vintage dip ‘n dunk photobooth. Regular programming includes live music, trivia, dance parties, guest DJs, art exhibitions, and film screenings from a 16mm projector.
