About the Space

Welcome to our unique space located in the heart of the Historic Printers Row neighborhood of Chicago, the first residential area south of the Loop. This neighborhood, rich in history, is populated by charming low-rise printing factories converted into condos and co-ops. This is where The Wizard of Oz was printed and where Elliot Ness conducted his stakeout on Al Capone. Enjoy the narrow, quaint streets lined with independent businesses, just four blocks away from the Art Institute, Sears Tower, and Grant Park. Space Features Our space, thoughtfully designed by a local architect, offers a variety of seating options to suit different types of events: birthdays, dinners, engagements, pop-ups, launch parties and more. If you're looking for a unique, historic, and versatile venue in Chicago, our space in Printers Row is an excellent choice. Contact us to discuss your event requirements and book a tour of our space. We look forward to hosting your next event!

Roads Clear/DJ RC

Live music/DJ

I’m a Chicago-raised DJ with a background as an archivist and lifelong music collector. My sets pull from house, juju, alt rock, pop, and everything in between; shaped by growing up around my mother, a CPS teacher and house head, my father, a Nigerian juju enthusiast, and years of digging through crates, libraries, and old mixtapes. The throughline for me is building sets that feel like a lived-in archive, always shifting but also familiar. I play both digital and vinyl, have my own equipment if needed, and can also join as part of a bill with my brothers Hungu & Kare.PKG.
