Jul 29 1110 Bates Ave Los Angeles ### ### About 1110 Bates Ave 1110 Bates Avenue is the address of the Silverlake Independent Jewish Community Center (SIJCC) in Los Angeles’s Silver Lake neighborhood. This one-story Mid-Century modern building – a former gymnasium built in 1951 – now serves as a vibrant community venue . It’s designed with sprung wood floors and a large, adaptable hall (“The Box”) with stage and lighting. The main performance space is roughly 4,000 square feet on one level , so it can accommodate up to about 350 seated guests (or roughly 400 standing) for events . All entryways and restrooms are ADA-accessible . The SIJCC mission emphasizes inclusivity: it offers programs grounded in Jewish tradition but “welcomes people of all backgrounds” . Over the decades it has become a cultural hub for Silver Lake’s arts, education and social life, known as the heart of the community . ### Events and Programming 1110 Bates Ave hosts a wide range of activities. As a multipurpose community center, it’s frequently rented out for public and private events: from theater and dance recitals to concerts, comedy nights, or lectures. Recurring SIJCC-sponsored programs include holiday celebrations, community choir nights, and children’s classes. For example, the center’s calendar regularly lists family-focused Shabbat events and community choirs. Local arts groups also use the space: the Silver Lake Ballet School operates a studio here for classes , and cultural groups (e.g. Chinese cultural programs) sometimes meet on site. The venue is advertised as suitable for charity drives, wedding receptions, film shoots, comedy shows, birthday parties and more – essentially any mid-size gathering. Shows at 1110 Bates range from free or donation-supported community events (many are low-cost or no-cost to encourage attendance) up to ticketed performances by external presenters. When tickets are required, prices vary by event (modest community shows might request a few dollars while larger concerts or theater productions typically range around $10–$40). Because many events here are intimate community affairs, tickets can sell out, so it’s wise to reserve early through the SIJCC website or the event organizer’s listing. ### Tickets and Booking There is no public box office at 1110 Bates; tickets for events are usually handled by the event organizers or SIJCC itself. Typically you buy tickets online or through community groups before the event. Some programs may even be free with door donations or advance RSVP. At many events, limited tickets (including door sales) might be available if the venue isn’t sold out – it depends on the promoter. For popular shows, watch for presales or mailing-list offers. If a show is sold out online, you can try arriving early on event day in case additional seats become available. In general, keep an eye on the SIJCC website or local event calendars for ticket links and details; no specific commercial vendor is tied to 1110 Bates itself. ### Seating and Layout The interior is largely open-plan. The main hall (“The Box”) has flexible seating: rows of folding chairs are set up on the flat wood floor as needed, or cleared entirely for standing-room events. There are no permanent balcony or tiered sections. A small raised stage sits at one end for performances. Best views depend on the event—for stage shows, center-front folding chairs on the main floor are ideal, but most seats see the stage clearly since the room is not divided by pillars. Because the floor is level, some people prefer to sit toward the middle rather than the very back for better sight-lines. The Box has acoustic panels on the side walls and a professional sound system, so even those in the back hear speakers clearly. For dance or movement events, an adjacent dance studio (used by Silver Lake Ballet) doubles as green room space. Outdoors, there’s a courtyard that can be arranged with seats (up to ~150) for ceremonies or small concerts. In general, seating is first-come or assigned by ticket: no strict VIP section exists, though organizers sometimes reserve front rows for special guests. The venue is fully air-conditioned and heated (central HVAC), so comfort is good year-round . ### Getting There and Parking 1110 N Bates Ave sits in east Silver Lake, at the corner of Sunset Boulevard and Bates. The official address “1110 N Bates Ave” is easy to plug into GPS or a map app. For drivers, there is a private parking lot on site (about 40 spaces available, free) . Street parking on surrounding residential roads is also free, though be mindful of posted time limits or street-cleaning signs. If the main lot fills, you can usually find free on-street parking within a block or two. Rideshare drop-offs are straightforward at the front door on Bates Avenue or on Sunset Blvd in front of the building. By public transit, the venue is reachable via Metro bus lines: for example, the Metro Local line 2 (Sunset Blvd) and line 92 (Glendale Blvd) run within a block or two of Sunset & Bates. The nearest Metro Rail stop is the Red Line at Vermont/Sunset (about 1.5 miles east), so if coming by rail you’d transfer to a bus or take a 25-minute walk. LADOT DASH also serves parts of Silver Lake, so you can check those smaller shuttles if they fit your route. Plan for a short walk from the nearest bus stop. Late-night rides home (Uber/Lyft) are plentiful in this urban area, but traffic on Sunset can be busy, so allow extra time after a show. ### Inside the Venue Inside, 1110 Bates is fairly open and casual. You’ll enter at street level into a lobby/lounge area (with chairs and tables) where staff or volunteers often check tickets or hand out programs. Security is minimal for most events; occasional bag checks may occur, and grills or detectors are unlikely unless a show requests them. The Box has theatrical-style spotlights and house dimmable LED lighting installed . At community events, the atmosphere is friendly and relaxed. Free Wi-Fi is advertised throughout the building . There’s no on-site coat check or baggage storage, so come with only what you need; valuable items can be carried under your chair. Restrooms are on the ground floor adjacent to the main hall – including at least one accessible restroom – so attendants do not have to leave the venue during a show. A small lobby table often sells SIJCC merchandise or event programs when appropriate. Drinks and snacks, if offered, are usually BYO or catered (the venue does not provide a bar or kitchen). Doors typically open 30–60 minutes before showtime; ushers will guide you to your seats or standing area. Because this used to be a gym, the acoustics are live but improved by wall panels: most performances sound very clear. ### Nearby Amenities The Silver Lake area offers many good dining and leisure options just a short walk or drive away. Sunset Boulevard is lined with casual restaurants, cafes and bars. For pre-show dinners you’ll find pizzerias, taquerias, and popular spots like Square One Brewery, York Boulevard’s cafes, or Sunset Junction mainstays. (Sunset Junction itself – about a mile east – has busy bars and eateries.) If you need coffee or a quick bite before a matinee, smaller cafes are nearby. The venue block itself has no restaurant inside, but delivering food (takeout from nearby shops) is sometimes allowed. In terms of hotels, Silver Lake is mostly residential and boutique – there are no major chain hotels on the block. The nearest hotels are roughly 1–2 miles away in Hollywood or East Hollywood (for example in the Vermont/Sunset or Hollywood/Vine corridor). If you need a place to stay, search Hollywood’s lodging options or look in the Silver Lake/Eastside neighborhoods. Late-night transportation: note that Metro buses run less frequently after midnight, so plan an Uber or taxi in advance if you stay late. A pedestrian tip: the neighborhood is quiet and hilly, so nearby cross streets may not be well-lit – stay on main roads when walking. ### What Makes This Venue Special What sets 1110 Bates Ave apart is its unique history and communal vibe. Architecturally, it’s a classic post-war Jewish Community Center building, intentionally bright and unpretentious. It still has the original gleaming hardwood gym floor and wood ceiling trusses – features rare in modern venues – giving performances a warm, live feel . Survey reports call it “an excellent example” of mid-century modern civic architecture . Culturally, this building symbolizes the resilience of Silver Lake’s community. In 2002 local parents and teachers famously saved it from closure , ensuring it stayed a gathering place. Today SIJCC thrives on a spirit of openness and creativity . Many local artists and educators say it has an intimate, homey energy that makes events feel personal. Folklore around town includes the “community love” festival when it reopened, and artists recall memorable gigs by indie bands on this wooden floor. Because it is still run by a nonprofit rather than a corporation, it retains a down-to-earth charm – both artists and audiences often remark on the friendly staff and multi-faith welcome. These traditions and the classic design (unlike a generic convention hall) give 1110 Bates a character all its own in L.A.’s live-event scene . ### Visitor Tips and Information For a smooth visit, keep these pointers in mind. Plan to arrive early, since check-in is informal and seating is general. Carry a valid ID (21+) if alcohol will be served at the event. Dress casually -- jeans and comfortable shoes are fine. You may bring small snacks or a collapsible chair if it’s a long event (no barriers inside mean you’ll be able to put a briefcase or backpack beside you, but big coolers are discouraged). Smoking is prohibited indoors (standard city law). Cameras are usually allowed for personal use, but avoid flash during performances. Since the floor is wood and can be slippery, avoid heels or slick-soled shoes. If you have mobility needs, every area of the Box and lobby is wheelchair-accessible (ramps and wide doorways), and seating can be set aside for wheelchairs . The stage is low (a small platform) so even side seating gets a good view. If you have young children, note events vary – some are family-friendly and others 18+; check age guidelines. There is no strict dress code, but some guests choose slightly dressier attire for special concerts. Finally, phones and devices work well inside, and there’s charging available in the lobby. The staff and volunteers are known to be welcoming – feel free to ask them any venue-related questions once you’re inside. ### Frequently Asked Questions #### How do I get tickets for shows at 1110 Bates Ave? There is no central box office at 1110 Bates. Tickets are typically sold through the event organizers or nonprofit running the program. Check the SIJCC website or local event listings for the specific performance. Many small community events are donation-based or free, while larger shows may offer online ticket sales in advance. If tickets remain at showtime, some may be available at the door (often cash only). Always buy early for popular events, as the 350-seat hall can fill up quickly. #### What are the parking options at 1110 Bates Ave? The venue has a small free parking lot behind the building with about 40 spaces . Additionally, street parking is free on nearby residential side streets (watch for any posted restrictions). Because spaces fill up, it’s often easiest to arrive early or carpool. Rideshare drop-off and pickup are easy on Bates Avenue itself. If the lot is full, you can usually find street parking within a couple of blocks in the neighborhood. #### Which public transit lines serve 1110 Bates Ave? No subway line goes directly to Silver Lake, but multiple buses on Sunset and nearby streets serve the area. Metro Local line 2 (Sunset Blvd) and line 92 (Glendale Blvd) stop within a block or two of the venue. Other routes (302 on Sunset Silver Lake, or 204/750 on Sunset/Glendale) are also nearby. The closest Metro Rail stop is the Red Line at Vermont/Sunset (about a 1.5-mile walk). In practice, most visitors take a bus to Sunset Blvd and walk a short distance. LADOT DASH routes in Silver Lake (Observatory/Los Feliz line) also serve Sunset & Glendale. Be sure to check latest schedules, especially late at night when service is sparser. #### Is 1110 Bates Ave wheelchair accessible? Yes. The venue is fully ADA-compliant. The entrance is at street level (no steps), and the main hall has ramps and wide doorways. At least one restroom on the ground floor is wheelchair-accessible, and the seating can be configured to include space for a wheelchair in the audience. The Box’s sprung wood floor is flat, making movement easy. As one SIJCC listing notes, the entire facility is accessible . If you have specific needs (e.g. hearing assist devices), it’s best to contact the event organizer ahead of time for accommodation. #### Can I bring my own food or drinks into the venue? Yes. Since SIJCC is a multi-use community center, outside catering and BYO food/beverages are allowed for private rentals . Many events even encourage bringing snacks or potluck dishes. Alcohol is not sold on site, but guests can bring their own (and share under a licensed permit) if the event organizer allows it . In short, the building does not have an in-house bar or kitchen, so bring anything you need (within reason) to the event, unless told otherwise by organizers. #### Is smoking permitted at 1110 Bates Ave? No. Smoking (including e-cigarettes) is prohibited inside the building by California law. If you need to smoke, you should step outside onto the sidewalk and keep doors closed behind you. Also, please be mindful of neighbors when smoking outside. For your comfort, no strong smells (like vape or cigarettes) are allowed in the indoor spaces. #### Are cameras or recording devices allowed? Personal still photography is generally okay, especially at community and daytime events; however, flash photography or video recording during performances may be restricted. If a show has a professional performer or is ticketed by an outside promoter, they might forbid photography to avoid disruptions or copyright issues. It’s best to check with event staff or signage at the door. In any case, be considerate of others – flash bulbs can be very distracting in concerts or plays. #### Is there a dress code for events at 1110 Bates Ave? No formal dress code. Most attendees dress casually or smart-casual. Since the space is a community center, you will see everything from jeans and sneakers to dresses or collared shirts, depending on the event. If you are attending a concert or special event, a neat-casual outfit is always safe. The floor is wood, so some people avoid high heels for comfort. In summary, dress comfortably and appropriately for the type of event you’re seeing. #### Are children allowed at 1110 Bates Ave events? Yes. Many events at the Silverlake JCC campus are family-friendly (especially community festivals or preschool-related programs). Children are welcome unless otherwise noted. However, always check the age guidance: some evening performances or anything serving alcohol might be restricted to 18+. For events that do allow kids, there are often children’s activities or a relaxed atmosphere. Strollers can fit in the open areas, but be considerate in crowded shows. If it’s a tight theater seating arrangement, front-row seats are usually kept clear or reserved for parents. #### Is food or drink sold on site? No, the center does not operate a permanent concession stand. Some events partner with food trucks or local caterers, but there’s no fixed café or bar. That’s why bringing your own snacks or purchasing something from nearby restaurants is common. While small bottled drinks can be brought in, people often grab a pre-made coffee or snack from a Sunset Blvd shop before entering. If an event does sell refreshments (like bake sale items or lemonade), it’s run by volunteers, not the venue itself. #### What is the capacity of the venue? The main indoor hall (“The Box”) seats about 350 people with folding chairs . For standing events (like dances or film shoots) it can hold roughly 400. Outdoor events (in the courtyard) can seat up to ~150. Bear in mind that exact capacity depends on the layout (stage size, hot spots set-up, etc.). Because it’s a community center, many events do not use every seat – sometimes extra space is left for mobility or mingling. Always check with the specific event for any exact limits. #### Can I bring a backpack or large bag? Most events and venues allow small personal bags or backpacks. There is typically no cloakroom, so large suitcases or cooler bags are discouraged. If your bag is bulky, you may be asked to carry it in front of you or leave it by your seat. Overnight bags are not needed – just bring essentials (wallet, keys, etc.). On busy nights, some events may offer a staffed check at the entrance for hats or coats, but this varies. In general, bringing only what you need will make entry and seating easier. --- This page is on Ticket Fairy, a ticketing, marketing and operations platform for live events and the venues that host them: festivals, club nights, concerts, conferences and tours, and night clubs, beach clubs and concert venues.
