About our host: 4West Lounge
"4West Lounge is Harlem’s premier safe space where “you can be YOU and FREE”. We pride ourselves with hosting diverse, curated events for guests to connect, grow, and be entertained.
During the height of the pandemic Troy Berry and Brian Clark wanted to create a black-owned LGBTQ+ bar/lounge and started the 4West concept in their apartment with no experience, but plentiful passion and enthusiasm. It proved to be a hit and in 2021 they opened their first commercial location on 127th Street and Frederick Douglass Boulevard.
4West Lounge is home for everyone - from creatives to corporate managers to stay-at-home entrepreneurs - where they can come together and have their social and entertainment needs met in an environment that is welcoming to all regardless of skin color or orientation."
