The Parlor Reopens

After a year of advocacy, The Parlor is planning a new series of concerts in a celebratory reopening.

In the aftermath of undercover police charges being reduced to a small fine, new legislation has been proposed by the state legislature to support house concert culture in Ohio by protecting hosts from Keeper of a Place ramifications.

What aspect of house concerts has been in question? Handing a beer to a friend when donations are being collected inside of homes has at political fundraisers, backyard barbecues, and house concerts. Based on the outcome of a new bill, designed to update state law and local policy, 21+ friends drinking with friends in a home setting won’t carry criminal ramifications for house concert hosts.

While the law is still being updated, we expect to see protective policy for house concerts take effect in 2022.
