As a sort of revival to this landmark (very biased) The Bikini Lounge is beginning to emerge of sorts. Embracing history/arts and all things TIKI! Since 1947, this long standing tiki bar is one of Phoenix's original and longest running. And the recent ownership change will breath new life to what we all love about it.

On the fringe of Phoenix's art district it has been the home of many thirsty local artists. Many of which will show their work as all things tropically Polynesian take hold. The pace-full and eventual restoration of the bar will include all things tiki and Polynesian. It is seeking out all artist in the world of tiki, local or passing through of all mediums, showings and demonstrations, from carvings to dancers that would love to show their work to a growing crowd of officianados!

We will update this thread with the upcoming showings/events as well the current running artist. And as time progresses a consistency of things to announce will be added to feast eyes on including more history even the future of a signature drink...

Below we have posted some pics of Tom's showing that is running until the 20th of May and will note the next artist to take the helm at that point!!

Much thanks to Mr.Cooper for honoring the blacklight gods with some of the best tiki work to be shown in these parts for a long time as reported by the regs!!!!

Mahalo!
