What kind of artists are you looking for?
We are looking for a handful of individual artists and/or arts organizations in a variety of artistic disciplines to use the space for their rehearsals/creation process. The space is ideal for "theatrical performing arts," but we're definitely open to other kinds of artists too, so we've left space in the survey below for answering "other" and explaining what you do and why it would work well in our space.
What is the timeframe for rentals
We're looking for one off, weekend, weeks long, and/or months long rentals now through July 31st, 2024
How much does space rental cost
Our hourly rates typically start at $10/hr for artists/orgs, and we're open to discounts for longer term rentals (several consecutive weeks/months). Tell us about your time requirements and we'll chat :)
I have some other questions.
Great, there's a whole free form question below for anything you want to ask about.
