About TheBlk.Room

Founded in September 2021 as a co-creation space, TBR operated as a member-based music studio, built with the intention of providing a safe, accessible, and high-quality working environment for Black and Brown artists and musicians in Chicago.

After outgrowing our original space, we transitioned to our new space in 2023 which has allowed us to expand our programming and membership. Fall 2024 will mark a year in our new home and we are excited for the future of TBR as we continue to cultivate resources for the Chicago artist community and sustain our mission. Learn more here.
