WE ARE AN ART SPACE MODERN & LIVE

About Me

The Trunk Space is an 1100 SqFt art venue. It is owned and run by Stephanie & JRC. We specialize in contemporary art, both in visual objects, and live performance. In addition to art openings & live shows, we also have a full espresso bar. Check out our website: www.thetrunkspace.com. The Trunk Space does not allow cover songs as we do not pay licensing. So original material only. Thanks!
The City of Phoenix has asked The Trunk Space to get a Certificate of Occupancy. A Certificate of Occupancy is a document issued by a local government agency or building department certifying that a building has been satisfactorily inspected and is in a condition suitable for occupancy. All businesses in Phoenix are suppose to have one, most don't but due to a city crack down we gotta get one. Just to get the certificate costs $600. Trunk Space doesn't have $600, so this is your chance to help us out! We are taking donations to help us cover the cost If you would like to donate click here:
If you want to book a show with us please email us directly at [email protected] , not thru myspace, (Thanks, it just helps us keep things organized).

My Interests

contemporary art, music, experimental theater, vaudeville, burlesque, performance art, improvisation, comedy, film, video, poetry, literature, painting, photography, drawing, sculpture, collage, mail art, found object art, comic book art, fine craft, design, hand made clothing, indie music, folk music, goth music, pop music, rock music, electronica, ska, sound art, music that is weird and fun, variety shows, drag shows, puppetry, dance, modern dance, and anything else that could be contextualized as art.

I'd like to meet:

Creative people! We are always looking for live experimental theater, talented dedicated artists, poets, musicians, serious music promoters based in our town, and all those who think there is more to life than TV, bars and sports.

Music:

If you're interested in booking show with us please email us directly at [email protected] (it really helps us keep things organized). We like: experimental, electronic, goth, folk, experimental, old fashioned, standards, jug bands, jazz, new wave, rock, pop, ska, and most of all anything interesting, new and Fun!!! We can't allow cover bands because ascap & bmi are contstantly trying to make us pay liscencing fees, we are sorry, but original music only.

Movies:

We are in the process of installing a video projector. Soon we would like to host regular indipendant film, & experimental film nights!

Television:

We'd rather you go out and do something social, and see something live and fresh and new--even if you don't come to our place. But if you'd deside to stay home and watch TV, at least watch something cool.

Books:

We like new and underground literature, poetry, spoken word, monologue, chap books, zines, comic books, theater, picture books, children's stories.

Heroes:

Anyone who's doing it for the love of art.
