We have been going to the Ark since it was just a coffee house on Hill street. It has always been a friendly and comfortable place to listen to great music. Still brings in wonderful talent, from stars to unknowns to locals.

Small, intimate with generally good seating for all. The biggest pain (as with the Michigan theater) is having to buy a "membership" in order to get drinks etc. The location is great downtown with good choices nearby for after concert meals or drinks.

Been to the Ark many times. (saw Rory block twice, Adrian Legg, Indigenous, Frank Vignola,etc)

Love it. If you see that someone you like is performing at the Ark, don't hesitate...

Some of the best singer/songwriters and folk musicians play here with concerts almost every night. The venue is very small, but lively. The Ark brings in all kinds of wonderful acts...many who don't normally play such a small venue. Check out their website for a complete list of upcoming shows.
