Facilities and Capacity

The extensive renovations completed in 2019 preserve much of the original architecture and building detail as a nod to their intriguing histories.

Beautiful Gallery Space

We booked Gallery O on H for our wedding and it could not have been a more perfect location! The space is a beautiful combination of industrial with brick walls and iron accents, mixed with beautiful greenery and plants. Kyle, the Gallery Manager, is infectiously enthusiastic and was a great help along the way. He took real care for our event, was with us all along the way, facilitating vendor walk-throughs, and staying with us for the whole wedding (he was very calming when we really needed it!). They recently renovated the adjacent building, giving you lots of options for floorplans, both indoor and outdoor. A bit of a hidden gem on a busy corridor, our guests were amazed by this venue.

Krampusnacht DC, the largest fundraiser for Santa's Cause DC, has been fortunate to be able to call Gallery O on H our home venue since 2013. We love being able to return to the gorgeous site and work with the gallery owners and their fantastic staff each year to create a truly spectacular event. The space is fantastic for our event; 3 differing levels of land to allow for different interactions. Street level entrance area with wide open space for setting up table and performers. Main higher level with the stage, perfect for focusing on speakers, DJ & performers. They bring in the bars, we bring the guests. Ideal for photography with lots or areas of interest to shoot from, including a staircase offering a bird's eye view of performance area with a large brick wall for an excellent backdrop. The venue is clean and attractive with great energy. The staff is caring, alert and organized and the ownership is helpful, accommodating and great to work with. Thank you Gallery O on H, it is always a pleasure!
