Common Space

Have a skill to share or an idea for a community workshop? Looking for space to work on a communal hobby with friends? Part of local organization that needs a place to meet? Host in the Common Space.

Low-cost rentable space for creatives, makers, builders, and doers, reducing the cost and risk of going it alone so more people in our community can come together to teach, learn, create, and build. Whether you’re a first-time organizer or a seasoned host, there’s a place for you here - support provided.

Common Space

Use of the Space

Our shared space aims to host workshops, classes, and other experiences for the education and enjoyment of the community. As a space that prioritizes connection, we are open to anything that positively brings people together.

We welcome:

  • Workshops and classes

  • Repair events and maker projects

  • Community organizing and working groups

  • Skill shares and study groups

  • Art, music, and collaborative creative projects

  • Mutual aid efforts

  • Experiments, prototypes, and weird ideas

We are less interested in activities centered on extraction, exclusivity, or maximizing profit at the expense of community values.

Pricing

If your programming is ticketed and a part of your business or source of income, or if you otherwise have the means to do so, we ask that you pay our standard flat rental fee of $50/hr (including any necessary setup and clean up time). If you need to discuss a different rate, just let us know.

If you’re hosting a free or donation-based event, donations are split 75% facilitator (you) // 25% Fix Way, not to exceed the $50/hr rate. 

This money supports operations and helps keep programming accessible for all.
