Smack Mellon
Situated on the waterfront, Smack Mellon's light-filled industrial galleries double as an event venue across from the picturesque Brooklyn Bridge Park and Manhattan Bridge, with breathtaking views of the East River and City skyline.
Located in the recently renovated “Boiler Building”, Smack Mellon’s gallery is an especially exciting space with tremendous architectural elements. The 6,000 square foot gallery boasts a ceiling that soars to 35 feet. There are 25 windows on two levels providing beautiful light and a spectacular view of Manhattan and the East River.
Smack Mellon does not provide any rental equipment or catering services. Clients can choose to either work with our preferred vendors or others, subject to approval.
Preferred Vendors: Luminous Designs Shades of Grey Productions SoundHouseNYC Brooktech
Currently (as of May 2022), we require visitors to our programs to be vaccinated and masked, but we do not require this for private events held in our space.
It is difficult to find street parking in DUMBO. There are parking garages nearby at 20 Jay St., 100 Jay St., 45 Main St., 85 Adams St.
Since we are primarily an art gallery, we only rent in between our exhibitions. Included in the rental fee is a membership to Smack Mellon which allows you to rent the gallery for private events. Please visit our membership page for more information about additional membership benefits.
DJs must play at a reasonable volume. Live bands are not permitted. All music must be off by midnight.
12pm-1pm
Please note that events with over 74 people in the space will require use of an approved floor plan layout, in addition to the $2,000 Temporary Place of Assembly (TPA) fee. There is no required layout for events with less than 74 guests.
