Glasslands Gallery

Glasslands Gallery, Music venue in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, United States

Glasslands Gallery was a music venue housed in a converted warehouse at 289 Kent Avenue in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. The space held roughly 300 people and featured an LED installation mounted above the stage.

Glass House Gallery, founded in 2004 by Leviticus and Brooke Baxter at 38 South 1st Street, preceded Glasslands. In May 2006 Baxter and Rolyn Hu opened Glasslands at 289 Kent Avenue, a larger part of the same warehouse complex, all-ages and without a liquor licence for its first year. PopGun Presents took over bookings in 2009 and daily operations in 2010, buying the business in 2012; two years later the venue made way for Vice Media's headquarters.

Glasslands took its name from the earlier Glass House Gallery in the same warehouse complex. Its bookings favoured a noisy, psychedelic strain of alternative pop that became one of Williamsburg's cultural exports, with acts such as Yeasayer, Gang Gang Dance and Das Racist. DJ Jonathan Toubin held his New York Night Train parties and Soul Clap Dance-Offs there, and the Village Voice called it the best arts venue conjuring Avenue A in the 1980s.

The venue was easily accessible from nearby transit and located among other galleries and restaurants in the Williamsburg area. The interior was designed for optimal viewing of performances from most positions in the space.

The space started as an all-ages venue without alcohol service, making it distinct from other Brooklyn music clubs at the time. This approach attracted younger listeners and provided a different kind of experience than typical concert halls.
