The Brycc House (Bardstown Road Youth Cultural Center) was much more than a venue... well, it was always meant to be. There were many plans for things such as an on-air radio station (which did make it as internet radio), a darkroom, a community computer lab (this was somewhat functional under the directive of the Hex Collective), meeting space for radical groups (some groups met there), and much more. Much of the same work is being carried out at the new location, which has been dubbed The Brick House. Unfortunately, many of the projects did not get off the ground, as paying the extraordinary rent became the sole focus of the facility. Despite receiving limited grant money from the City Of Louisville, the center was forced to put on shows nearly every day of every week for some time. The resulting burn-out and numerous personal crises among the members, not to mention the monetary strain, caused the Brycc House to close its doors and relocate.
