A Creative Space
sort of private, sort of public
Located in South St. Louis
Membership. Events. Individuals. Groups.
Definition of a third space:
“Locations that facilitate social interaction outside of the people you live or work with and encourage “public relaxation”. They are places where you encounter “regulars,” or frequenters of a space, as well as potential new connections.”
-from the book, The Great Good Place, by sociologist Ray Oldenberg
Reconnect
Nearly half of Americans reported losing touch with at least a few friends during the first year of the pandemic, according to 2021 findings from the Survey Center on American Life
Meet New People

You decide
