Single Event Space Request

Beginning on January 1, 2018, our 4 hour event rate and 6 hour music rate will be increasing from $85 and $125 to $150 and our full building use rate will increase from $130 to $190. Requests for use of space made before 1/1/18 will be honored at the $85, $125, and $130 rates. In order to maintain the building we need to raise our rates. We haven't raised rates in years. Thank you for understanding. Happy new year!
