The Big Apple - Sunday Afternoon Venue

Built in 1915 as the House of Peace synagogue, it was sold in 1936 and reopened as the Big Apple Night Club, where the dance craze that swept the nation during the summer of 1937 was born. Crafted by Columbia's African-American youth, the Big Apple dance eventually traveled to New York and attracted the attention of famed dance instructor Arthur Murray and songwriter Tommy Dorsey, who wrote "The Big Apple Swing." By 1938, however, the club had closed; the property was sold, and the dance was no longer popular. Abandoned in 1979, the former club was moved three years later from its original location at 1138 Park to its current siting at the corner of Hampton and Park streets. The Big Apple is currently under the private ownership of our very own Richard Durlach, who's made it his mission to preserve this important piece of dance history for future dancers!
