Accessibility
The Conciliation Labs venue, The Basement, is located in a historic building in Downtown Richmond. Due in part to this fact, the building was not originally built to accommodate patrons with any sort of disability. As we have renovated The Basement over the past few years, making it accessible to our patrons has been at the forefront of our minds. Thanks to a generous grant from the Mary Morton Parsons Foundation, we now have the funding to become fully ADA compliant. With equipment purchase and permitting for installation, this process does take time to complete, so we appreciate our patrons patience while we round this project out.
