Unique Event Venue
Welcome to the most unique event space in DC! The founders, Drew and Chelsea, personally handpicked all of the elements in the space to create a warm and intimate feel that your guests will love. See what makes us different:

“I couldn’t go another day without saying Thank You!!! All of you did so much to make sure it was a phenomenal night – and phenomenal it was!!! I’m still getting texts from people talking about it, I’m still having people post about it. The photos and videos are just amazing. I will remember that night for the rest of my life – it was exactly how I wanted to celebrate my 50th. The venue was perfect! The program and flow throughout the night was flawless. Everything just came together perfect and I’m so so happy. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! I can never say enough about your venue.” – Kenya
Unique Elements
Reclaimed Wood Wall – Drew and Chelsea drove to Ephrata, PA and purchased two barns that are over 100 years old. The reclaimed wood wall gives the space warmth and character.
Parking Garage – One of the great things about coming to Studio52 is the parking. We are less than half a block away from a 6-level parking garage.
Windows – Vintage 1920s window frames from a factory in Cincinnati, Ohio, with changeable LED lights to fit any color scheme.
Sound Reactive Lighting System– Dance the night away under our one of a kind sound reactive lighting system.
Garage Door – The motorized, glass garage door can be put up to allow a nice breeze to flow in during spring and summer events.
Open Floor Plan – Studio52 is a blank canvas for you to create the perfect experience for your guests.
High Ceilings – 20 ft ceilings create a spacious, inviting atmosphere.

“A lot of venues have stuffy staff, but Studio 52’s team is great to work with. Chelsea was super accommodating with our plan and Drew was not only thorough, but cool. The event managers went out of their way to help us. They are super friendly and gave great advice on set up. We plan to do a lot of events at Studio 52.” – Christopher
