THE LOUNGE AT DIXON PLACE
The Lounge at Dixon Place is open to the public Monday-Thursday, 6pm to midnight; Fridays and Saturdays, 6pm - 1am. Our weeknight Happy Hour in the Lounge (6-7pm, Mon-Fri) features special beer, wine, and well drink prices and a nightly Bartender's Choice specialty cocktail. For our theater patrons, make sure you give yourself some time for a pre-show cocktail and then hang out afterward with the artists for a nightcap (but, of course, you can also take your drink into the theater!).
The cozy custom-designed lounge features recycled wood wainscotting on the walls (floorboards rescued from the space, formerly a light fixture factory), custom stained-glass foyer artwork by Joseph Cavalieri, antique Persian rugs, and a custom-designed bar by Michael Howett, Dixon Place board member and former owner of Marion’s Continental restaurant. Original art by neighborhood artists will decorate the Lounge walls in rotating exhibitions.
All Lounge proceeds directly sustain the Dixon Place mission to support artists developing new works of performance including theater, dance, music, and literature, as well as the costs of maintaining the newly opened non-profit theater.
HAVE YOUR PARTY IN THE LOUNGE
What better way to celebrate a birthday, anniversary, or any of life's other milestones than by throwing a party in your friendly, neighborhood LES bar? It's a great place to spend an evening with your closest friends and all proceeds support the Dixon Place mission to nurture emerging artists and the presentation of their works-in-progress. The Lounge is open 7 nights a week and special packages are available for parties of 10 or more. Drop us a line at lounge@dixonplace.org and we'll help you with the arrangements.
