Following a successful soft launch, Brooklyn Art Haus has announced that it is opening its doors for full service this month.
Located in Williamsburg, Brooklyn Art Haus is a brand new performance art space created to “serve as a hub for creatives across Brooklyn, New York and beyond,” according to a release.
During its soft opening, the independent performance center hosted over 35 shows, with many more performances showcasing numerous talented artists planned for the coming months.
Along with the performing arts space, Brooklyn Art Haus also offers an art gallery and an incubator for up-and-coming talent.
“In response to watching small theaters and studios close during the pandemic, we were inspired to build Brooklyn Art Haus. It is a love letter to the artistic process,” said Isaac Bush, Brooklyn Art Haus co-executive director. “This organization is a home base for innovation and multiculturalism that speaks to the moment. It offers a different producing practice that focuses on equity, support and the continued generation of work. We are a place for dialogue and ACTION!”
A full cafe and bar are also featured within Brooklyn Art Haus, suitably called Cafe de Artistes. The cafe was developed by siblings Naama and Assaf Tamir as an extension of their Brooklyn restaurant Lighthouse BK and is inspired by European cafe culture.
“It’s a buzzing and sexy new café, but also welcoming, happy, and vibrant.” said Naama Tamir, who describes the new space as providing a renaissance for creative environments. “It’s a meeting place with international flair – one that encourages collaboration within the arts community and among its audiences.”
Brooklyn Art Haus and Café des Artistes are open Sunday-Thursday from 9:00am-midnight, and Friday-Saturday from 9:00am-2:00am.
