The Freight and Salvage Coffee House has reached an extraordinary moment in its history. We are on the verge of building and moving into a spacious new performance facility in the vital and developing Arts District of downtown Berkeley.
With the generous support of the city of Berkeley and other government funders, foundations, corporations, and lovers of folk and traditional music, we are in the process of transforming the property we own in downtown Berkeley into one of the most effective performance and educational venues in Northern California.
Our new home will have a performance room with 440 seats plus additional space for a cafe, classrooms for music education, a folk and traditional music archive, and critically needed office facilities.
The new location will provide a superior level of access for all Bay Area residents. Next door is a five-story parking garage and one-half block away is the Downtown Berkeley BART station.
If you have questions about our new home please call us at the Freight & Salvage Development Office: (510) 848-2112.
