THE TRAIN DEPOT
Our acoustic songwriter shows are hosted in the Freight Room of the Venice Train Depot in Venice, FL. Built in the mid 1920s, the historic depot is the perfect spot for our songwriter shows, which Sunny Jim has been hosting here since 2006. This Station is a historic former Seaboard Air Line Railroad depot located at 303 East Venice Avenue in Venice, Florida. This is where soldiers left to fight in the war, and this is where the circus came to town for its winter home.
The Freight Room is perfect for acoustic songwriter shows. It's a cool rustic space with exposed brick walls, wood floors, large windows, and great acoustics. James and his guests swap songs and tell stories, discuss the stories behind the songs, and sometimes test out new music. Shows are well attended, space is limited so reservations must be made in advance. All contributions go to the performers. Attendees are welcome to bring a small cooler with their own beverages. No food is allowed in the Freight Room, but some regular attendees tailgate in the parking lot before the show.
