Club LA BOOM x ARTLAB – Singles Gallery Salon 30+ [Blind Art Chemistry]

This time at ARTLAB @ Goldberg Studios - our very first gallery edition.

A structured, easy-paced gallery afternoon where you actually get to meet people - with a light matching layer on top. Not speed dating, not a party. Ease with depth, we called it.

⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯

In partnership with Galerie Benjamin Eck and brand experience designer Sophie Friedrich, we're turning a Glockenbach loft into a perception experiment, built around the gallery's current exhibition: Zwischenwelten.

The artists ask what lives between things: between what's seen and what's felt, between you and the person next to you. We think dating belongs in that question, too. This afternoon is an attempt to step into those in-between worlds together.

⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯

• 13:30 Door open: arrive + hello in gallery loft
• 14:00 Exclusive art tour starts in small groups (gender-balanced)
• Twist: One part explains, other part has a blindfold, then switch ("partly blind") - activate sense of hearing
• 15:00 Match release (NYC-built matching tech)
• important: you fill out a short science-backed questionnaire 24h before (built on Aron, Gottman et al.). Our matching tech pairs you with the person in the room you're most likely to click with - reveal goes out via WhatsApp.
• 15:15 Social mingle: coffee + connect in lounge
• 16:00 Official end: you do you!
• Goodie: There will be the auction starting at 17:00 - you have access to stay!

⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯

Before:

1. Buy your ticket
2. Receive a short personality questionnaire (science-backed) via mail
3. Our algorithm finds your best match. You won't know who it is until the event unfolds

At the event:

1. The blind art tour gets you out of small talk and into real perception
2. Your match is revealed on WhatsApp before coffee. What happens next is up to you

--------

• Will I feel comfortable? Yes. That’s what we’re here for, the format does the heavy lifting - you don't have to "work the room."
• Who’s coming? Approx. 60 guests, mostly late 20s/early 40s. Hetero pairings this time.
• Languages? Both German & English are totally welcome.
• What If I Don't Get a Match? Our events are usually sold out and gender-balanced. Life happens, so perfect 50/50 isn't guaranteed. That's why we also offer friends matching as backup - if the romantic click isn't there, you still leave with new people in your circle.
• Can I bring a friend? Absolutely - especially if they’re also single.
• Is it exclusive? A little. We keep things small and partly invite-only.

-----------

We believe connection in 2026 needs better tools than swipe apps and louder bars. Our formats are built on partner venues where we go ourselves, concepts that actually work and research (Aron, Gottman, Brené Brown, Dunbar) - translated into evenings that feel light, not therapeutic.

If you've outgrown the apps, this is what comes next.
