Road Trip Close To Home: Nyack lounge blends painting, karaoke and cocktails in one creative space
Owners say the space is one of the only art‑bar venues in Rockland County.
A creative mix of art, karaoke and cocktails is drawing crowds to Black Parakeetz, a paint, sip and karaoke lounge in Nyack.
Owners say the space is one of the only art‑bar venues in Rockland County.
“The only thing you bring here is a great attitude,” said owner Terry Clark. The lounge includes three areas: a paint‑and‑sip studio, a karaoke room and a full mixology bar.
Guests take part in guided art sessions before moving into a karaoke lounge stocked with more than 20,000 songs. “We wanted a place that you can go to and just have a lot of fun in a safe environment,” Clark said.
The mixology bar features handcrafted cocktails, including old fashioneds, martinis and margaritas. Co‑owner Naomi Clark said, “We specialize in very handcrafted cocktails that we put a lot of energy into.”
The owners say the goal is to appeal to all ages and create a fun spot for groups, gatherings and celebrations.
