The BAY Cuts Ribbon on All-Ages Concert Venue, Resource Center, and Coffee Bar

On Tuesday, December 20th 2017, Lincoln non-profit, The BAY (www.thebay.org), cut the ribbon on their new All-Ages Concert Venue, Resource Center, and Coffee Bar. All are open for regular business hours and services.

The all-ages concert venue supports our community by providing musical experiences and support for the musical/creative community. The all-access pass at the BAY allows 112 young people in our community to access our spaces for free, receive a meal every night, and get paired with a mentor through Heartland Big Brothers Big Sisters.

The resource center offers services and classes centered on preventative support and preventing individuals from being in situations of crisis. This resource center can be utilized by the community and also by the over nine-thousand individuals who have walked in our doors since we opened them.

The coffee bar serves as a creative hub and connection point for building community and supporting the creatives in this community. It also doubles as a job-training program for individuals through our resource center. The community cup at the coffee bar replaces “tipping” after transactions with the opportunity for individuals to purchase cups of coffee for people who wouldn’t otherwise be able to afford it.
