Following strict COVID-19 health protocols, Ad Lib Gallery has now opened its doors to accepting reservations for small groups to enjoy our beautiful outdoors patio and garden oasis – savouring our exquisite culinary homemade traditional Viennese delights – along with indoor viewing of our music, arts culture showcase events. The Gallery offers a unique enlightening, entertaining and informative music, culture, arts and culinary experience, continuing a tradition that can be traced back to Vienna in 1812 and the founding of the “Society of the Friends of Music”. Our themed Sunday soiree events, commencing at 1:00p.m. are designed and produced by hosts Claudia & Jim. Their motto is all about offering a special entertainment experience with ” A Touch of Austria” European finesse and “gemuetlich” hospitable charm. Our arts studio/gallery is an ideal environment with a wonderful stage setting for a relatively small group of people to enjoy a quaint, friendly and personalized atmosphere. A truly one of a kind place that creates something extra ..to the ordinary! It is where fond memories are made.View the Summer 2021 Showcase Event schedule below
