House of Yes is a creative collective and nightclub in Bushwick, Brooklyn, New York City. The House of Yes nightclub was opened by artists Kae Burke and Anya Sapozhnikova, and partners Justin Ahiyon and Ilan Telmont in 2015.




History


House of Yes was created in 2007 by Kae Burke and Anya Sapozhnikova, two of the producers behind Lady Circus. From July 2008 to August 2013, Anya Sapozhnikova and Kae Burke ran a circus theatre and creative event space in East Williamsburg Brooklyn called the House of Yes, hosting aerial classes, creative events and circus theatre.
The first House of Yes came to existence in April 2007 in a 2,500-square-foot (230 m2) second-floor loft located at 19-49 Troutman Street. A fire took place on April 22, 2008 and forced a relocation. In June 2008, less than 2 months after the fire, House of Yes had found a dilapidated former ice-house off the Grand Street L train in East Williamsburg.
The warehouse was taken over by Anya and Kae in collaboration with Lauren Larken of Artistic Evolution, Hassan Spruill, Keelan Kelly, Jordann Baker and Aaron Goldsmith with the help of countless friends. Walls were torn down, kitchens were installed, studios were created, stages were built.
Five years later Burke and Sapozhnikova collaborated with Telmont and Ahiyon, and opened the doors to the new club.




Nightclub


The club is located in the heart of Bushwick. The Brooklyn venue is part nightclub and part self-proclaimed "circus theatre." With a focus on both electronic music and live entertainment, House of Yes boasts high ceilings, video installations and a full backyard, as well as "the best bathrooms you'll ever experience" (also self-proclaimed).




Expansion


In 2019, House of Yes partnered with the Edition Hotel and Ian Schrager of Studio 54 to produce the show "The Devouring", and provide entertainers and DJs at the brand new "Paradise Club", at the Times Square Edition Hotel.




Culture


House of Yes grew out of NYC's Do-It-Yourself and Burning Man scenes. The nightclub is known for wild parties with strange themes, circus performers, burlesque dancers, and more. It is also known for being LGBTQ friendly, having a strict pro-consent policy enforced by "Consenticorns", and being a sex positive nightclub. As performer Sarah Jane Washington wrote in an interview in Vice, "I feel like I can be my most authentic, eccentric, queer self, and feel beautiful and celebrated for it."

I partied there last fall and found it to be a sensory overload of colorful costumes, pulsating beats, and dancers flying through the air. Needless to say, I was anything but bored....We dropped off our coats and headed to dance. This room, which doubles as an entrance, bar, and medium-sized dance floor, was all in blacklight. And those eyes opened and closed mechanically. After surveying the scene, it looked like we were in the ballpark with our costume idea to go glittery, silvery, and ethereal. These partygoers nailed it. We headed inside. At most clubs, people head to the smoking area so they can talk. Burke says she wanted to create a place where "you don't have to smoke cigarettes to connect with people." This airy courtyard seemed like a good start.The main dance floor was sensory overload between the performers, the costumed partygoers, the blacklight, and the video art behind the stage.
