Cervantes', hi-dive, Your Mom's House and Black Box look back on how they survived the pandemic and what they learned.
Two years ago, venues were forced to close their doors as the COVID-19 pandemic swept across the United States and Governor Jared Polis ordered non-essential businesses in Colorado to shut down as of March 24. But now, as positive cases have plummeted and restrictions have loosened, music venues are regaining some sense of normalcy.asked the owners of many local venues what they've learned over the past two years and what they're looking forward to in the future.
When your venue closed because of the shutdown, what were your main worries? Did you have to furlough employees?Our main concern was how long the pandemic would last. There was so much uncertainty, especially during the first couple of months. All of our staff has been impacted in some form because of the shutdowns. We did our best initially to keep as many of our staff on payroll as possible, but we were only able to sustain that for a few months.
We also just hustled. [We] submitted for every grant we could, and we got a ton. We also were waiting on the"Save Our Stages/Shuttered Venue Operator" grant, which took forever to come through but was very helpful. Just sort of anything we could do or any aid we were eligible for, we went for. It was a very hard time, but there were so many small victories along the way that it just sort of kept us moving forward.
[We were] surprised at how much stuff needed fixing/replacing after almost an entire year out of commission. The building is old to begin with, and a lot of the fixtures that we turned off just never turned back on again. Most of our pre-pandemic staff had sort of pivoted to new careers, so we ended up with a mostly new crew.
