and its right here off the Halsey L stop. how awesome!
even more awesome is that they are throwing a HUGE party/fundraiser to kick-start a massive expansion.
details below, ripped straight from their Facebook page…..

The new world is just upon the horizon, explorers. We have finally liberated the first floor of our big old warehouse, making Refuge truly massive in all senses of the word. Come celebrate Refuge’s expansion with music in both indoor spaces, a beautiful rooftop, interactive art installations, and the pulsating vibe of this converted warehouse.

Featuring the musical stylings of Milo, DKDS, Small Change, Cobra Krames, Joee Irwin, Radical Outing!, Junglez, Action Alex + more TBA

This is the second in a series of fundraisers to renovate all of Refuge, and the first time you will ever see downstairs. Architectural renderings of the completed Refuge Center for the Arts will be on display.

Light art by Jason Eppink, creator of the Light Ripple, Pixelator and Print After Party. Candy Crack delivery by Club Animal, the big blue mascot who gives you free bouncy rides on the subway.
