Venues at 78th Street Studios

Venues at 78th Street Studios is a distinctive event venue in Cleveland’s Gordon Square Arts District, offering five flexible spaces within a large creative arts complex. The setting combines industrial character with the atmosphere of a working gallery building, making it a strong choice for organisers seeking something more memorable than a conventional function room.

The venue portfolio includes smARTspace and RAMP Level, two larger spaces of approximately 6,000 square feet that can accommodate sizeable seated dinners, theatre-style presentations and standing receptions. Smaller options include HEDGE Gallery and Suite 215 Gallery, which suit more intimate celebrations, exhibitions, ceremonies, dinners, workshops and networking events. The Pinball Lounge adds a playful option for cocktail hours, informal gatherings and evening entertainment, with vintage arcade games available for guests.

The spaces are suitable for weddings, corporate meetings, fundraisers, art exhibitions, birthday parties, networking events, photo shoots and podcasts. Wedding organisers can use the venue for ceremonies, cocktail receptions and dinners, while corporate planners can create presentations, panel discussions, launches or private celebrations in an artistic environment. The galleries, studios and artwork throughout the building provide an appealing backdrop for photographs and creative event styling.

Event planners benefit from accessible spaces, free parking, prep kitchenettes and the ability to work with suitable external caterers and professional bar staff. The building is wheelchair accessible and tours are available by appointment. Located close to Downtown Cleveland and just off the Shoreway, the venue is convenient for local guests and visitors alike. Its combination of adaptable layouts, artistic surroundings and several distinct room sizes makes it suitable for both polished formal occasions and relaxed, design-led gatherings.
