            The Main Space is available to rent for public and private weekend events, during the day and evening, as well as daytime classes, workshops, and rehearsals throughout the week. Rentals include both the Main Space (oak floor, roughly 30′ x 40′) and the Mezzanine (carpeted, roughly 30′ x 12′). The space includes a modular stage, sound system, tables and chairs, stage lighting, projector, kitchenette, six all gender bathroom stalls, shower, sauna, and a “green room”. The stage can be as small as 4 feet by 8 feet, and as large as 12 feet by 16 feet The capacity in this room is approximately 120 to 140 people standing room only, 72 people in rows of chairs (with a small or no stage set up), 56 people seated at tables (with a small or no stage set up). Room Rental rates for the Main Space in 2026 are as follows:

We charge our rental rates on a sliding scale, with the rate for each rental determined by the type of event.  In general, we apply our sliding scale rates as follows:
  • Low end is for private events that do not charge a fee and for non-profit organizations.
  • Middle of the range is for private events that charge a fee.
  • High end is for corporate events and for individuals of considerable means.
We discuss what part of the range is most appropriate for each renter when we make a booking. Additional fees include:
  • Cleaning: Varies based on the size of the event and if food is served: $80 – $200
  • House Manager: $40 for set-up and $40 for break down. For some events, a House Manager is required for the duration of the event, including set-up and break down.
  • Stage Fee: $50 fee for stage preference.
We prefer that all public events be priced affordably, on a wide sliding scale, in order to be accessible to as many people as possible. For public events, we assist with outreach and publicity, in the form of our website calendar, announcements on our Facebook group and page, as well as a weekly newsletter that goes out to over a thousand people.
