The Drawingroom - Open Wed&Sat 11-3PM and events - Music/Gigs/Comedy - we are being re-born. Want to know more, mail me.

The Drawingroom in Amersham is in the middle of a proper rebrand, which means it's caught between what it was and what it's becoming. Right now, it opens Wednesdays and Saturdays from 11am to 3pm, though the real action happens when there's a gig, comedy night or music event on - and that's when you'll want to be there. The venue's clearly got ambitions beyond being a regular community space, so checking their social media or dropping them an email before you visit makes sense.

This is the sort of place that works well if you're camping nearby - Whelpley Hill Park and Lights Camera Glamping are both within a few miles - and you want something beyond the usual holiday park entertainment. Whether you'll get much out of a Wednesday afternoon visit depends entirely on what's happening that day. If there's an event, brilliant. If not, it's probably not worth the trip on its own.

The venue clearly appeals to people after live music, stand-up or just somewhere different to spend an evening. Families might find certain events suitable, though it's worth checking what's on before you book a babysitter. The vibe of a space being reborn can be genuinely exciting - you might catch something before it becomes the hot spot everyone's talking about. Just don't expect it to be fully formed yet.
