Writers. Readers. Business owners. Stay at home moms. Artists. Creatives. Crafters. Photographers. Wellness enthusiasts. Wine lovers. Chocoholics. Instructors. Students. Entrepreneurs. Employees. Dreamers. Doers. Thinkers. Performers. Our community, in essence, looks just like YOU!
Members, you can snag a comfy couch to work or relax, take part in events and activities, lead workshops and host events, or simply recharge your emotional batteries with your besties. All members have access to the co-working spaces, common areas, kitchen, and coffee bar, and outdoor patios. Feel free to host clients in the private conference room.
Members interested in art or photography can upgrade to ArtBlock or LightBlock memberships (described below). We showcase member art in our MillHouse Gallery. We also have 20 private member studios and 12 open studios/designated desks available. You can apply for the waitlist.
