With heavy hearts and sincere appreciation we must announce that our owners have sold our building and the new owners are not resigning our lease. We will be closing our doors July 30th, 2016. No matter how disheartening, we are choosing to use our last few weeks as a toast to all of you; to appreciate and celebrate the “Amperfam” that has come to fruition through the past 2 ½ years of amazing patronage towards our crazy weekend dance parties, special events, consistent dinner service and Sunday brunches.
There are so many people we want to thank for making Ampersand such an enormous success that we almost don't even know where to begin... We have had so many amazing DJs that have kept the party bumping throughout the years: Pieces and C-Rok, Leo, Rudy Lui, Alta, Cleveland, and the whole Daas Unterground crew. It is because of all of you that we were voted Best Dance Club this year by Connect, and we couldn't be more proud.
We'd also like to extend our gratitude toward the numerous other artists, musicians, performers and hosts: James Lee Smith, Savannah Stage Company, The Savannah Sweet Tease, House of Gunt, Dirty D Karaoke, Brian Stafford, Ben Lewis and Emily Kenyon for making Ampersand the most diverse venue in downtown Savannah.
All else aside, a tremendous thank you goes out to every single one of our customers for supporting us through it all. SCAD students, you truly are the heart and soul of what we do; it is because of every single one of you that we were voted Best College Bar. You work hard and party harder, and we love you all for it. We honestly couldn't have done any of this without you tearing up the dance floor and keeping the parties going Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights.
Our hours have changed in preparation for our closure however we will remain open Thursday through Sunday from 5 p.m. - 3 a.m. In the weeks to come you can expect some great drink specials and crazy blowout parties honoring all of you, everything we have accomplished and all that we have created together. This is the grand finale and we invite everyone to come and celebrate with us; see you all on the dance floor!
Thank you for 2 amazing years!
Sincerely,
Your Amperfam
