A great sounding recital space
The acoustics in the Serendipity event venue are fantastic. The shape of the room creates an amazing sound bubble. The building was originally a grocery warehouse and was built with a sloping floor. That makes the room taller at the stage which helps create a great sound. The heavy well-aged pine exposed ceiling joists vibrate with the sound like the underside of a guitar or cello. The original builders had no idea they created one of the best sounding rooms in all of Columbia, MO for music performances, recitals, lectures, and conversation. This means your event's music can be at a pleasant volume and enjoyed anywhere in the space, and conversions are easy to carry on. The space also features a wonderful grand piano which is available for events and recitals.
