"almost like watching an artist in your living room"
Walls lined with memorabilia from 60 years of legends
Play well and you could earn your own headlining slot

Step into a living room that happens to have legendary sound. At The Ark's open stage, fifteen acoustic acts get eight minutes each to win over a crowd that's been gathering since 1965. Play your two songs right and you might just earn your own headlining night.
