is the baby grand piano available?
No, sorry. The baby grand piano was removed in order to make the space more flexible for other groups other than pianists. We do however offer a professional performance 88-key keyboard with weighted keys and built-in speakers for instruction, private practice, or rehearsal use at no additional cost.
can I schedule a walk-through or site-visit?
In order to keep the space affordably priced we don’t offer guided site-visits but we do offer self-guided site-visits. You can schedule that here for $12 for half an hour of time. The Green Room is entirely DIY. We provide remote access and you set-up the room. The images we have accurately depict the space and because it’s a single room of 500 square feet what you see is what you get. But we understand that you sometime have to feel out the space so we offer the self-guided option.
