We had our wedding ceremony here on June 9th! Thank you Yvonne for making this process easy for us…read more I truly loved working with Yvonne and the rest of the team at KUE they made our wedding experience less stressful. They set up our chairs and cocktail tables for us. When we arrived we didn't have much to do but set up the additional small things we had. The outdoor space was lovely and really tied the look for us. I can't wait to have another event here! One thing I will say is, this location is hidden please make sure you use signs to ensure your guests don't get lost. They have a sign as well just buy balloons to make it pop more!

I had a milestone Party at KUE. Overall, I had a successful and pleasing experience here…read more The event space is tucked away off the street in an industrial area of North Hollywood - south of the Burbank/Vineland intersection on Vineland. I found that this space and surrounding area were fine for my event purposes - a milestone Birthday Party. I'm not so sure if the surrounding area would work as well for a formal Wedding event if that's a consideration. The actual space itself is very pleasing though. I had looked at several other event spaces - ranging from Golf Club Bar spaces (manager did not reply till I did a Yelp review - see my review for this place), rooftop Event spaces (more expensive per hour) through to more formal, claustrophobic Wedding spaces. After a walk thru appointment of KUE, I found that the hourly rate was decent ($250 p/hour), as well as the inclusions- several tables/chairs, a partially nicely decorated interior, a couple of outdoor areas and no noise restrictions! Street parking and limited parking in the driveway area (after business hours) to KUE was ok. The main contact at KUE was Brenda whom was polite, pretty responsive and professional throughout my dealings - including contract signing, questions regarding the space and recommendations/helping organize vendors. My Bartender and another vendor providing additional cocktail tables/stage/linen (interestingly paid via the KUE zelle link, but whatever) were recommended from Brenda. The contract included 1hr for setup. I utilized this at the beginning before my 5 hours of use (6pm-11pm). There was a $200 cleaning fee on top of the 5 hour rate. I was also required to put all tables and chairs inside the event interior space upon exit. My event went well. I am a Musician, so I performed with fellow Musicians to guests of maybe 75-80 ppl, a Bartender and Taco guy. The space never felt cramped at all and could support more ppl. For KUE, I would recommend that some more outdoor power outlets around the space would be very useful. To counteract the gloomy industrial area I would even suggest a stylish oversized KUE sign at the front entry. For prospective Clients, I would suggest that anyone looking to book the venue be aware of the strict time requirements. Part of my deposit was taken (OK'd by me after a discussion with Brenda) because we were a little overtime getting all of our decorations/decor/equipment off the space (15-20 minutes after 11pm). I was proud of my friends and family for helping (and helping the caretaker) , exceeding the requirements of packing and cleaning up tables/chairs/space. We were out before the caretaker. I think that a 0-20/30 minute grace period (if effort was made by the client and not affecting cleaning) would be in the best interests for the management to adopt - in the same way that Hotels, rental car companies etc do already. Again, overall a very good experience.

We recently attended a birthday dinner party here at Great Event Studios in Tarzana and it is…read moreactually the same owner as Athena Studios in Nothridge where my daughte celebrated her 18th bday. This Tarzana location was actually really nice too - it's located along Ventura Blvd (closest cross street is Wilbur Ave.) right after McDonalds and next to Dominos Pizza and right across Lady C's Cafe. The closest fwy for those travelling from another city is Tampa ave. exit. The venue is really pretty, very well maintain, very clean and very aesthetic design and has its own restroom inside. The size of the venue is perfect for intimate parties with a group of 50-60. There was space for buffet table, bar for the drinks, Sushi bar, Photo Booth and DJ booth and a decent dance floor size was setup and it didn't feel like crowded at all. The balloons, table setting, decors etc was also done by great event (separate fee applies on top of the venue rental). I highly recommend this event place if you are planning on your next initimate party! You will love the place, and if you decide to also hire them for organizing and decorating the venue you will surely love it. The owners are very proffesional and really nice. There's also a lot of parking spaces as well as on the side street - from my own personal experience, we didn't have a hard time finding a parking spot and the part was on a Saturday night.

Planning a baby shower from Texas for an event in California could have been stressful, but Teena…read moreat Athena Event Studio made the entire process seamless. She was wonderful to work with--always responding promptly, sending additional photos whenever I had questions, and offering extra rental items on-site so I didn't have to coordinate with multiple vendors. What you see online is exactly what you get, which I really appreciated. The venue itself is beautiful, spotless, and thoughtfully designed. The indoor space was perfect for our event, and the kitchen easily accommodated our professional catering team. Everything was clean, organized, and ready for us when we arrived. The reason I'm giving 4 stars instead of 5 has nothing to do with Teena or the venue itself. My only concern was the surrounding area. While unloading decorations, we were approached by a homeless individual who was shouting nearby, which was a little unsettling. Parking was also somewhat limited, and I found myself worrying about our guests. Having worked in Northridge about 10 years ago, I remember it feeling much different than it does today. That said, this isn't a reflection on Teena or Athena Event Studio. She was an outstanding host, and the venue exceeded my expectations. I simply wanted future guests to be aware of the surrounding neighborhood so they can plan accordingly. I would absolutely recommend Athena Event Studio and would gladly work with Teena again.

This place is located in Koreatown , so made it simple to shop or have food delivered. Most importantly, the owner was incredibly friendly, likely because they also run a church and offer rental services. The bathrooms were clean, and the outdoor space was lovely. This place would be perfect for family gatherings or club meetings as well. I'm planning to host a joyful time here with my coworkers at the end of the year. I highly recommend it! 여기 진짜 완전 강추입니다 !! 한인타운내에서 대관할 곳이 마땅치 않았는데 너무너무 좋아요 !!

We received so many compliments from our guests about the great atmosphere of the space. The sound system and the lighting really set the mood for our gathering. The kids had a blast!

We would definitely recommend White Canvas to anyone looking for a fantastic party space, and can't wait to return for our next event.

Best venue to have your events!…read more My fiancée and I had our engagement party here and it went so well! Such a smooth and easy process from booking to the end. Steve & Krystal did such an amazing job following up with what we needed and their response time were super quick! There was no problem with loading in and preparing everything before the event began. Our bartender Monica did such amazing job catering to what everyone wanted to drink, any of the three signature cocktails we chose or shots. And Micaela was also great; serving water, prepping the desserts, and bussing the tables. The team does all the cleaning at the end so you can just enjoy. We left some things and still was able to communicate to I pick it up. No complaints at all! We will definitely be using this venue again!

Around the place before a venue. They could even just plant mosquito plants to ward off the pests. The atmosphere is pleasant and the decor has an oriental ambiance with the koi pond and lighting. For the venue I attended the food was great and the table settings were elegant. Overall, a terrific place to book your event provided they do something about the mosquitoes.
