About this space

Sanctuary is an Event Space in the Brooklyn Peace Center; it is a long, high-ceilinged hall with chapel-like proportions.

Design: Polished hardwood floors and decorative plaster mouldings sit beneath a high vaulted ceiling. The room has neutral painted walls, ceiling fans and a central pendant light that complement its simple, formal proportions.

Features: A built-in raised stage provides a focal point for presentations and performances. A PA system and fixed speakers are supplied, and hosts may play their own music or bring a DJ. Wi-Fi access is available and the space is wheelchair accessible; stackable chairs and folding tables are stored on-site for flexible layouts.

Ideal for: This space suits community groups and performing ensembles that require a formal, open hall for presentations, talks or mixed standing-and-seated programs.

What sets it apart: A continuous balcony gallery runs along both sides of the room, offering elevated views over the main floor.

What guests say: The space feels friendly and relaxed and supports community-focused events.
