1917 Vintage Church & Creative Space
Los Angeles | Glassell ParkHosted by Karen
The Space
"One of the dopest locations in LA. Hit them up for that location gold!" - EQ, The People's Collective Authentic 1917 vintage church featuring original stained glass windows, antique pews, 30' high ceilings, arched aisle ways, a baptismal, beautiful natural light and other charming classic vintage detail, is available for production and special events. The space is unique, versatile and extremely cinematic! It's perfect for film, TV, photos, fashion, music videos, commercials and live performances. It's large and accommodating (inside and outside) -- with lots of room to move! The spacious 3000 square foot ground floor interior features a green room/dressing area, a storage room off the main entry (perfect for gear and props) and two bathrooms. The church also includes a vintage confessional booth (as an add on), a medium grand piano and a vintage organ, both available for use gratis. A large, multi-use (flex space) is located upstairs, with several blank parceled out areas ready to be set designed! The upstairs space also includes an authentic, vintage Bible classroom, with double/French vintage casement windows and ample natural light. Additionally, there is an unfinished, weathered 2nd building on the property with a side alley and brick wall topped by barbed wire, that includes a religious mural, and an old school telephone booth. The disheveled appearance lends itself to a raw, urban street look, perfect for crime or horror shoots (i.e. NCIS, American Horror Story). The outdoors area also features two cottage fronts, large shade trees and green grass. Weather permitting, it's a great area to use for catering, outside seating and social distancing. Go outside and get some fresh air! The total building space available is 9,695 square feet. The total lot space is 14, 259 square feet. You can literally create multiple looks within one space to stretch your location budget. A load-in zone is conveniently located directly in front of the church and there is ample, free street parking for guests right in front of the church. This large, multi-use space offers a lot of potential for creatives and others looking for a unique, unconventional, statement-making venue. This is a diamond in the rough. A gem, soon to be discovered! SOME HYPE!! "The church looks even better in person than in the pictures. The amount of space you get in the base price is a lot. The place is dope, and super unique." - Wavvii, platinum songwriter "Beautiful and versatile filming location. There are so many areas around the church that you can either set dress, or use as is, since the building has a lot of character and a historic feel to it all." - Beatrice Ho, producer ('Lil Bad Katt "Stay Asleep") "This space is just remarkable! It has such great character." - Zach Ambroise, Cinematographer/Composer "We had another amazing shoot at this church location! Can't get enough of shooting here!" - Austin Hughes, Framed By Austin (Butterly Ali "Testimony") "I cannot imagine a better host. Space is definitely one of a kind." - Buel Music SOME PROJECTS: Steve Aoki & HRVY "Save Me" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vmEt0GAXQJk Jamie Bower "I Am" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pczMO57wKTg Greyson Chance "My Dying Spirit" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2RRyFMTCw_I Nikitaa "Bad Trip" (Sitam) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UEfgSMfJeDk Allen Stone “Consider Me” featuring Taye Diggs https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dhX7ZJS3shE Shea Diamond "SMILE" - Live https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HyGBX9iia2Y Sammattick (Growing Up Hip Hop) “Champagne Dreams” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RaFFVZro0ys Johnny Goth “Waste” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yH17WXoukM0 Stereo Jane "Amen" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KRMOPcaIfuI Night Club "Miss Negativity" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X_Kbi4ZIIxg Kenneth Nicholson Presents "Grasp" - A short film for NY Fashion Week https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cmZKfHEhI4Q&t=55s Huella (Tribeca Film Festival 2021; Sundance Film Official Selection 2022) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SIepocab5rs ####
