Canvas Lounge

About

Canvas Lounge is the life-long dream of owner, Darek Tanner. After many years of building experience and acquiring many interesting items, such as the cathedral lights (from the church he attended as a child) and an old phone booth (from the hospital he was born in) just to name a few, his concept was ready to be put into action. Canvas is part art gallery, part lounge, part music venue, and part dance club. From the art on the walls, to the lighting effects, to the fixtures on the ceiling, there is constant change and evolution. The result is a constantly shifting decor that is designed to make you feel groovy, and we think it will. Canvas focuses on taking extra care that guests feel comfortable and cared for. Lighting, ambience, great music, friendly people, and a state of the art sound system are a few things that make Canvas like no other. There are seasonal drinks, such as the Watermelon Fizz in the summer (made with real watermelon) and the homemade Hot Buttered Rum in the winter. We fresh squeeze orange and grapefruit juice daily. There are also happy hour and nightly specials to keep your pallet (and wallet) excited. Canvas also offers a tantalizing tex-mex style menu, with all fresh ingredients. From homemade salsa featuring heirloom tomatoes, to the ever popular Tortizza. Darek's dream became further realized in 2012 when Chris Mitchell & Susan Schwab (Co-Owners of Nickelbug Music) teamed up with Canvas to produce live DJ Events, performances, recordings, and special events. The mission: To bring you some of the best and most unique entertainment in Music City, striving always to promote diversity and excellence in our community.
