Was a fun venue for a friends performing troop. And a nice art gallery. The staff was accommodating and nice, even the hired security personnel. The prices are also very reasonable given the quality of the venue.

Coolest art gallery lit up for burning man information. Wild and fun.

Alwun House is that rare combination, in any city or town, but especially in Phoenix where art meets local culture with great results. Come here to see fabulous art shows as well as music, spoken word, acrobats, educational and meet one of the widest cross sections/ variety of folks living in Phoenix, all ages, all backgrounds. You will be well and truly welcome here, thats not just lip service (this place was diverse decades before it was a thing). Come for the art, stay for the entertainment, and come back with the friends you make.

This colorful house has stood at the corner of 12th st and Roosevelt since 1912. I personally drove past it for years wondering what the story was behind this unique building for years. Come to find out, it is a wonderful non-profit with a fever for the arts. This gem hosts both an art gallery and talent of all sorts week in and week out. From live readings of banned literature to scantily clad burlesque performances and everything in between, this ol’ house will fill your thrills. The best part of it all is the two brains behind the operation. Come through and support your local artists!

Unique and quirky intimate place to have a party outside with ponds and greenery. Fantastic owners. Super sweet!!

Theyre one of the oldest gallerys in Phoenix. Visual, fine, and performance art exhibition at this place. Plus if youre trapped in a down pour they have the BEST porch for staying dry...

Went here with a friend for a random circus and concert night. Gorgeous old home with a great big backyard for events. Take cash, as they do not take cards or have an ATM. The show was eclectic and fun with all skill levels. The featured band was good. My only gripe, if you could call it that, was I expected the Puddles the Clown advertised to be the one from Puddles Pity Party. It was not and I was sad.

Exotica was my first time here and it was fabulous. The show and the art were both captivating. I highly recommend attending an event here.

Great little art venue with a stage. Definitely an arts must visit. Been here several times for local acts of music, circus and even a wedding.

Great space for smaller parties and functions. Fantastic patio with fun lighting for evening events.

If youre going to an event here Im sure its fine. Recommend against planning your own event here.

Excellent, unique and funky, with portions eclectic and surreal, artistically macabre, occasionally sensuous, bodaciously Victorian, cool and hip, beatnik-ish and ultra-pop, gnarly and exceptional, exotic and mystifying, wickedly bizarre and melancholically entertaining – just a few thoughts that come to mind about this find. Frequent exhibitions are always worth the visit… cannot wait for my next drop-in! Well worth a visit, you’ll find it intriguing and amusing!

Great art house that I attended a burlesque show at. I will be returning for future events as my wife and I loved it.

This was truly a experience I will never forget. I think every one should check it out. (Adults only) at least for the exotic art show.

This is a beautiful space. They have a garden space, a stage, a bar, and a gallery area that you can rent for weddings or events.The staff is friendly and welcoming.

The best kept secret ... Great date night options when the weather is cooler

Always a great gallery with a great community kim and dan yall rock

Monster Ball was no joke for costumes and fun!

It was the high light of our night..

Beautiful location for events, and shows.

This is the place to go to see emerging artists, enjoy great music and unusual performances.

Great place to see an event. Very cool vibe.

It was a cool experience. Lots of art and free expression.

My first visit to Alwun House was in 1986. To be honest, I dont recall the show but Ive been a fan forever. Exotic 17 on 2/10/2017 was fantastic as usual. The experience at Alwun House always takes to wonderful places I can not otherwise go. Thanks Dana and Kim

Such a fun place, love the art and the stuff they do in the back yard. LOVE the family who takes care of it.

Its a beautiful location and house. There are pieces of art all over, the atmosphere is comfortable and inviting and its a bit secluded in a downtown setting. Worth checking out, its one of the coolest places Ive come across in the past year. It definitely warrants a return visit from me.

Ignite was an amazing experience. Thank you Alwun house for hosting.

Worst waste of $30 ever! Stood on the sidewalk for 40 minutes because they would sell tickets until the event started. Then waited an hour for the show to actually start, after the scheduled time. Then, 3 minutes after the show started, told I couldnt sit where I had already been for an hour. Absolutely a waste of time & money!

What a great place to see. Every holiday they decorate the place for all seasons. Halloween was my favorite. They had a giant spider inn front of the historic house. The house is painted an array of colors. It is a landmark for sure. Events are always on the calender. Super cool place! A must see.

Cool local art spot

Pandoras Circus of Sin was performed with the talent and production values of a middle school Thanksgiving skit. My friends and I were very disappointed. We would have left after the first act if it werent for the raffle tickets one of our party had foolishly purchased. The MC was the only bright spot in an otherwise dull evening.

One of a kind. Be their or be square

Monster Ball was great.

A wonderful place for anyone interested in local artists and their work.

This place has it all. At least all that Ive ever wanted. It has a stage where I can play out my failed dreams of being vaudevillian style comedian. It has its own bar where I can reenact scenes from that Kevin Bacon movie where he makes cocktails for a bunch of people I think it was called Footloose.

Beautiful location, love the ponds.

Beloved community art gallery. Great place for weddings and events in general. I

It is always a one of kind experience.

Super cool! Gorgeous architecture and setting, all in the middle of the Garfield district. Never even knew it was there until the Halloween party they throw, which was top notch

Great atmosphere, super fun performances and exhibits, and inexpensive drinks

Cant say enough about this place, its the living beating heart of the Valley arts scene

Great place to experience Art! Fun and funky venue!

Lots of different acts! Super sexy fun!

Beautiful grounds, intriguing artwork. The owner is so kind and the doggies are the cherry on top.

Really a semi-hidden Phoenix treasure, with regular art shows and events... feels like you got invited to the cool party your art friends threw. Go, donate if possible, and enjoy.

Seeing an art show here is truly a life changing event. I recommend this for everyone.

Saw Gas light circus and it was very entertaining!

If you havent been you got to see a show

Quirky and hospitable art house.

The events there are just the best thank you

Very tranquil.

Very cool set up although set up of the bar outside right by the walkway makes for a very crowded and claustrophobic space.

This is my favorite event venue in Phoenix! Kim and Dana, the founders, are by far the most gracious, hosbitable hosts. Ive attended numerous events over the years and there wasnt one that I didnt enjoy. The shows produced here and the art displayed are like none other in the valley.

Always a pretty Gallery.

A desert oasis and eclectic gallery with the most amazing shows you will find in Phoenix.

Only there one time but great experience look forward to going back.

A great venue for the arts, as well as live entertainment. The Alwun foundation has also done amazing things for the Phoenix arts district. If youve never been, I recommend checking it out.

Fantastic place

Wonderful Place.

Very unusual shows with local artists, beautiful outdoor seating, unfortunately off the beaten path of the art wall so youll need to drive.

Awesome venue. Small cozy backyard with awesome are and performances.

Quirky independent art gallery and performance space. Love it!

Get shows and entertainment for such a small venue. Thoroughly enjoyed the Gaslight Circus held there.

Amazing, intimate, eccentric venue with a wide range of appeal!

First time there 2 wks ago. Very entertaining and atmosphere was great

Alwun house is an amazing and creative space. Parking is free and abundant.

Absolutely lovely and gorgeous experience

Eclectic. Fun. Awesome place to meet people.

Owned by a lovely couple who always host fantastic shows. Especially the Gas Light Circus!!!!!!!

Fun alternative venue for LGBT and straight

I went to the Alwun House for a friends solo show opening night. The Alwun House also had ASU doing a show outside at the same time. I showed up about 10 pm with my service dog..I was asked if I still wanted to come in because it was late. After paying 12$ per person, there were 2 loose great danes that I asked them to put away due to me having my service dog....The owner seemed very bothered by that but did end up putting them away. The band was over, there were no snacks and every person there was brought by the artist. You would think that for a SOLO show, they would have only his stuff. Also, there were no promotions for the show, there was nobody brought in by the Alwun that were in any way in a place to afford a custom piece of art...Horrible way to do business!

Saw Tease! Wow;

Some friends and I went for the Erotic Art show last night. It was my first time at this venue and it will be my last. The very tiny house and backyard, essentially what the venue is, were so jam packed that noone had any room to move; by far a fire hazard. I could barely enjoy the art work due to the rushed and cramped atmosphere. I saw a gentleman , who I believe owns the venue screaming at the front door at security. And I dont mean for logical reasons. Then after some confusion had the same manager being completely rude to my friends and I. In his defense, we found a spot on a stairwell that was off limits. However, in our defense it WAS NOT clearly marked for no entry. If you want people to stay out a sign that states no entry would be sufficent. With that said instead of asking nicely we were barked at and treated extremely rudely!!! The man had no quams about his response. When asked if he was the manager he responded by storming away and he shouted Something like that. As a business owner, I could NEVER speak to clients in that way. From what I was told by a staff member that is a normal occurance. Again the show was well done however the venue, itself, did not allow me to fully enjoy the show. And the experience with the something like that manager( his words when asked if he was management) left a foul impression of management. I will not be going back to this venue.There are much more friendly and comfortable venues and galleries in the area that I will enjoy.

Its all about the events.

Such a garden like place.
