Wonderful space. Theyre doing a great service for local musicians with the live virtual shows. Give them your money!

The floor layout is huge. Plenty of space to feel the vibrations of music, and allows you move your body in time of the sound. They have different themed nights, and on others they have a show. Depending on the event there might be cover charge. The night I made it out, it happened to be goth night. Upon arrival, to the left, different booths are set up displaying various handcrafted objects such as jewelry, popular prints, paintings on vinal records, some woodwork containing trinket and storage boxes. Fother inside towards the back, there is another room displaying more art work. The bar was a lil pricey, but the sever could make good drinks.

Beautiful place! Friendly staff, plenty of room to walk around. Interesting art everywhere. Went there for the Joe Bob Briggs show, and the sound was pretty good. Lots of space for the meet and greet, so that was nice. Check in for the show was fast. Prices for drinks a little high, but I get that theyre trying to run a business. I would definitely go back if I were in the area again!

Love this space! They have lots of different events here from performance art, music, exhibition, classes,and markets. They also rent studio space to artist. My favorite is the Radio Arcane events.

So we went to an event there called the Pirate Festival. A beautiful array of handmade and stylized items, beautiful ariel acts and live music. The only thing that could have made it better was a larger selection of food and drinks. It was well done!

1st time to see a burlesque show..really i would say it was much more of a performance art show and it was a blast! All the performers were sooo good! The sanctuary itself is a really cool place with a great feel. Definitely will be going back!

Went to the Va Va Vixens Halloween show here and it was a lot of fun! The acrobatics and aerials in particular were well executed, the burlesque had all the classic tropes, and the bartenders got into the spirit with themed drinks. I definitely plan on going again.

This review is specifically for the Va Va Vixens. I’ve been to 6 shows now and they never disappoint. I recommend spending a few more bucks to get the VIP tickets. The VIP tickets guarantees a great view and table for your drinks. The show is sexy, funny and super entertaining. Singing, dancing, comedy and even aerial acts . Its always a great time and something different to do in Louisville. I can’t wait for the next show.

Place was cool. Weird place to throw a party only 1 unisex bathroom for about 60 people...but other than that cool vibe! Nice art work. really creative live artist. Tramel Fain was really cool.

This is an amazing place for art in Louisville! Not to mention the home of the one and only Vava Vixens! The work conducted within the walls is astounding and highly fascinating. The shows put on by the Vixens are alluring, exhilarating, sometimes mouth watering and others jaw dropping. If you like sexy men and women coming together to put on a show with class filled with dance, song, acrobatics and other amazing acts take the time to catch the Vavas. Or if you are into art swing by and see what they have to offer. You will not be disappointed!

Review №42

Great location but the building is safety hazard and dont expect much accommodation/communication when booking an event or renting out a space. The people who run it are only concerned about themselves and not the local artists community. Seek elsewhere!!!

Review №46

Va va Vixons show was fun especially the dancing and acrobatics. Large space and enthusiastic folks.The down side were the mics, some of which cut in and out which put a damper on the mood off the listener.A note to the organisers: our group arrived prior to 7p the advertised start of the show.Seven was NOT the start rather when the doors opened. Total bummer.
