Founded in 2006 by Adam Hervey and Darren King, and later owned and operated by Pauline Lay, Pehrspace was an all-ages, not-for-profit art space.

The building itself performed multiple functions, acting as a rehearsal space and recording studio during the weekday and a venue at night.

A variety of professionals, from masseuses to voice teachers, rented out the adjoining office spaces and contributed to Pehrspace during their occupancy.

Sean Carnage Monday Nights became a Los Angeles staple, showing and promoting new bands every week.
