If you love creative vibes, creative people and creative drinks, you’re going to love the vibe at Zeitgeist, a new gallery and bar space in Old Five Points. Connecting community through art, the space hosts partner events with food trucks, inclusive happy hours, cabaret shows, group drawing classes, gallery openings and more. If you see a piece of art you like, you can buy it and support the local artist whose work adorns the walls. Signature cocktails include house-infused liquors with layered flavor profiles like gin and green tea, whiskey and ginger, tequila and bay leaf with peppercorn, and more.

This is a great local bar that is working very hard to provide all kinds of community involvement programming in the arts. They seem especially interested in providing inclusive events for a wide range of people. In a giving week you can go to shibari night, creative movement, LGBTQ specific events, etc. Also they provide gallery space for local artists with new shows about every 90 days or so. A very very welcoming, inclusive place for everyone. Also, the most important thing: they make really good drinks.

Fantastic atmosphere. It does not show up as a bar on the general search but it is in that it serves great tasting drinks. The local art and art events are what set the vibe here. The staff are all super nice too. Highly recommend for a drink or to find your next art piece

Super unique bar with delicious house-infused spirits. They host various events so check before you go to see what vibe you’re looking for! The drinks are great and the owners/bartenders are super welcoming to all! It’s a very inclusive place with great local art on display which rotates every few weeks so there’s always something fresh to see.

Fun, unique bar, with delicious cocktails (including NA) and art of all sizes and styles.
Everywhere I looked, I found another interesting piece to look at.
I also appreciate the variety of events happening almost every night. Definitely excited to visit regularly to see what might be displayed next.

From the fresh delicious cocktails, to beautiful art, to great ambiance, this is a lovely place to visit. Love how some of the drinks are refreshing like Safe Word or a lovely salty element like Unencumbered. Would absolutely recomend just to see the wallpaper in the bathroom.

This is the bar Durham needed. The space is beautiful and wonderfully showcases local art. The owners and staff were so fun and friendly! I went last night and the cocktails were so solid. Can’t wait to go back.
