The Garage (youth center)

The Garage is a non-profit all-ages music venue in Burnsville, Minnesota, a southern suburb of Minneapolis. It has been a launching point for local bands such as Down and Above, Dropping Daylight, Escape from Earth, Four Letter Lie, Quietdrive, Screaming Mechanical Brain, and The Autumn Cause.

History

In 1995, the Burnsville city developed the idea to build The Garage as a multi-purpose community center. Although initially voted down, the idea was given momentum when in 1997 grants were obtained to cover the operational costs of a youth center. However, the project lacked the funding necessary to construct or convert a building into a suitable space. In 1998, recommendations for a central youth gathering facility established the Burnsville Youth Center Foundation and through funding from the city and donations from civic organizations and local businesses they were able to establish the youth center now known as The Garage. At the inception of the project the Garage Advisory Board (GAB) was created, which represents and makes decisions on behalf of venue.
