Our Concept + Vision

Beautiful House Gallery Lounge began as an idea to provide the Marpole Community in Vancouver's southwest corner with an art gallery and lounge venue unlike anything currently in the area. A concept. A vibe. A space. And also, a place for all involved to learn and grow and share their time and talents.

Beautiful House Gallery Lounge is a venue for local multi-disciplinary artists. We are enjoying promoting and showcasing the many talented artists, friends and beautiful people we have and continue to meet at our special events.

We strive to select artists that we love and that have a positive attitude and outlook on life and integrity in the substance of their work.

We strive to ensure that all performers are team players who understand where we're coming from, what we're trying to accomplish, and that in the end it's all about helping one another, sharing with each other, and building community. And when you get past our egos, hopefullly you'll see there's a heart that just wants to love each other.

It's working! Our strongest supporters and ongoing contributors are those who share a vision for a beautiful space with a beautiful vibe for your soul.

 

 

 

Our Motivation...

Each event is getting more polished and we're gaining a loyal following along with many new guests. We're getting into a rhythm now and momentum is building... the responses from the crowd are that they "enjoy the vibe" we're creating...

We're not a pretentious gallery, we're not a meet market or anonymous bar. The hours of work involved wouldn't be worth anything to us if we were. We go on because it's a beautiful house of people gathering for a moment in time. And if it weren't a beautiful house of people, we'd have thrown in the towel months ago. We go on because we're seeing networking happen and people having intimate conversations. We go on because we're crazy. We go on despite the headaches, bruises, calluses and sheer exhaustion. We go on because we see relationships and friendships growing and because we're meeting more and more beautiful people. We go on because of the stolen moments we experience and the sense of belonging our events can bring. We go on because it give us a greater sense of family that is beyond blood.

Our Future Is Up To You...

We are looking back at our growth over the past two years from a conceptual gathering of friends, friends of friends, and a few members of the community of Marpole to our growing supporters packing the house and making it beautiful!

To continue bringing you more of the same good concept and vibe you love about Beautiful House, we're always in need of word-of-mouth promotion. If you get one of our emails, please forward it on to your art and music loving friends.

It's rare to be able to hang out for an evening with so many multi-disciplinary artists. Our events bring you a micro-festival of talent in the atmosphere of your living room.

We welcome your contributions in whichever way you think you can! Got storage space? Got some time to promote and flyer? Got fabric, chairs, couches? Got sound or lighting equipment and experience? Got a truck? Got a slide or film projector? Wanna help us move the feast? Please email us at info@gallerylounge.com.

If you've visited us, we hope you come again, and if you haven't been yet, we hope you come to an upcoming event with some beautiful friends of yours.

Sincerely,

Shainin and James
Doorgirl and bartender, et al....
