Rhizome DC - Art Learning DIY Culture

This venue is truly amazing! They host all manner if expressive arts, from music, theater, exhibitions and demonstrations to who knows what! They promote creativity and provide a space for brilliant art that may fall out of mainstream expectation. Rhizome must be experienced!

Rhizome is Rhizome. There should be at least one Rhizome in every city, a place to interact with the world in a novel and interesting time and space. A place where art is experienced and created for Art's sake. Divorced from capital dictating expression. A place that will continue to exist and persist simply because it must.

This is a way cool place for unadulterated art and music. I was really surprised by the intimacy and kindness of everyone — from the artists and the host. Looking forward to future events and a chance to collaborate.

The only space in DC consistently enabling and encouraging artists (local, national, and international) to do what they want. Go to any performance, gallery show, or workshop and you’ll have a great experience and connect with interesting people. We’re lucky to have Rhizome.

Such an awesome little place! People here have been easy to chat with and it seems very ethically run.

Great place to listen to music and meet friends. Went here for the La Perla and Taxi Vision show in May. The staff, attendees and performers were all friendly. It has sort of a friendly, homey vibe. People even brought their kids!

Such a Hidden Gem! All the performances were beautifully experimental and excellent! Crowd was supportive and atmosphere was chill! Will come back!

Always looking for places where creativity and authentic community can come together and this is a rare gem in the DMV. We went for a punk show on a sunday afternoon and were amazed by the talent, emotion and raw energy of the artists as well as the homie space. It is literally a house turned community center. They have discussions, workshops and great music. Can't wait to go back.
