About the Space

Originally constructed in the 1950's as a steel forging factory then later turned fine carpet & rug repair warehouse, Parker Karlov was established to support creation and conservation. Converted into a mixed use space, the walls continue housing the process of development and the celebration of heritage. The main area is a large, raw timber ceiling bowtruss warehouse space with industrial windows, natural light and polished concrete floors. The space is totally open [and free of pillars] which lends itself to a host of different events. In the past we have hosted: photo shoots, music video production, music recordings, pop up dinners, baby showers, corporate holiday parties, yoga classes, casino nights, concerts, orchestra performances, etc.
