Our website is: www.diegosumbrella.com111 Minna is an art gallery/bar/nightclub. We've been here 10 years, serving up a unique atmosphere in which to enjoy art, music, film, drinks, and whatever else happens to be the celebration or occasion of the day or night. We are in the business of Art & Leisure.
4.0 of 5 stars.
If there's only one reason to visit 111 Minna (though in my opinion, there's more), it's to check out their monthly event, Sketch Tuesday. If you're a fan of art, sick beats, and cool vibes... you'll...
