THE SHOW ROOM

ABOUT THE SHOW ROOM

The ZACC Show Room is located in the heart of downtown Missoula in the beautiful, historic Studebaker Building, and can house a maximum of 150 seated and 350 standing. Adjacent to the Show Room is the Blackfoot Gallery & Lounge, which can be booked in addition to the theatre for events requiring extra, separate space.

The name of our event center harkens back to the building's original use as an automobile garage and showroom. The Studebaker Building is listed on the National Historic Registry, and served a growing automobile industry from the 1920s through the 1950s, when its owner Louis Nybo sold and repaired Studebakers here — the then vehicle of choice for Missoula's police force.

SHOW ROOM AMENITIES

Our event center boasts 150 chairs, 20 rectangular 72" banquet tables, twelve 30" round wooden-top cocktail tables (which adjust in height), an adjustable theatre lighting system, a state-of-the-art sound system, backdrop and blackout curtains, a 5,000-lumen projector and 9' by 16' mechanical screen, a removable stage, a backstage area with access to the kitchen and upstairs bathrooms, with public access bathrooms and an interactive play space just outside the entrance. The Show Room holds a beer, wine, and cider non-profit service license, and events in the Show Room serving alcohol are catered to by trained and certified ZACC bartenders.

The Show Room is available to rent for private events, for use by non-profits, and for festival events requiring passes. 

Performances in the Show Room are exclusively booked by the ZACC. To inquire about booking a show in the ZACC Show Room, please go to Book a Show.

The ZACC does not stock linens. If your event requires tablecloths or other linens we recommend renting from Missoula Textile Services.

The ZACC's kitchen is not commercial, and foods served to the public must be prepared offsite (though our kitchen is perfect for discreet food service prep/set-up and for keeping foods hot or cold). For great local catering, we recommend Biga Pizza, Masala, Bravo! Catering, and Burns St. Bistro.

If you have questions, please email Gallery and Venue Director Mikyla Veis, at mikyla@zootownarts.org.

Below are some examples of room layout, but they are by no means exhaustive. We work with you to arrange the space in the way best suited to your event.

It’s here: the last totally virtual Revival Comedy Night, at least for a long while, we hope! Bringing you a solid hour of jokes that you can enjoy from the comfort of your home: please feel free to listen while making dinner, taking a walk, or relaxing in the bath. Featuring some of the best comedians Missoula and Montana have to offer, this month’s show will be headlined by the delightfully weird Eden Solas, and will benefit a local non-profit of her choice, Forward Montana — an organization that’s committed to stopping Asian hate and discrimination, among a lot of other vital missions. The show will also feature sets by Cody Trogdon, Megan Rodriguez, Nathan St Onge, Stephanie Voisine, Mars Sandoval, and James Johnson, and is hosted (as always) by Sarah Aswell.

Revival Comedy Night is the twenty-ninth performance in our series — 'Social Distance Sessions' — a live-stream production partnership between the ZACC and Missoula's Community Media Resource (MCAT). Shows will be streamed to the ZACC's Facebook and YouTube, and to MCAT's cable channel and Local Live website. Home audience members are asked to donate to the show's Givebutter 'virtual tip jar' if able (use Venmo, Paypal, or a credit/debit card).
