UTICA, N.Y. — Sickenberger Lane, a 15-year-old downtown Utica bar and entertainment venue, will formally reopen on Friday under its new name, Sicken@624, and look, as a showcase for local artwork.
Sicken@624, located at 624 Varick St., will hold a grand opening and ribbon-cutting event at 5:15 p.m. with the Greater Utica Chamber of Commerce.
Work began on remodeling the Sickenberger Lane facility in September 2018, according to a news release from the Greater Utica Chamber. Business owner Michelle Klosek commissioned friend Angela Johnson of BB Designs/Utica Love to re-design the space “entirely with the goal of becoming Central New York’s go-to art & entertainment venue,” per the chamber. Murals and other artwork from more than 30 area artists are on display both inside and outside the bar.
