This expansive space is open to the public for musical performances and art exhibitions. Offering the kind of offbeat, somewhat-underground space that you'd expect from the urban underground, you can be sure to have an unusual and refreshing experience here. Promotions for AV-Aerie (formerly Open End Gallery) are somewhat underground as well; advertising happens via colorful lithographs posted in the city's underground record and book stores, rather than through detailed listings on websites or newspapers. The homemade aesthetic makes the experience of AV-Aerie all the more meaningful.
