Host an Event

We have a curated room in the back of the shop with good light, a long table, and space for up to 20 people. We built this space for gathering, learning something with your hands, meeting the people who make things, or spending an afternoon with your neighbors.

If you have something to teach, something to sell, or something to celebrate, we'd love to host you.

The Space

  • Seats up to 20 guests
  • Tucked in the back of Granville General Store, right in the village
  • Well suited for hands-on workshops, maker pop-ups, small gatherings and classes
  • Coffee, drinks, baked goods and snacks available from our own shelves

Ways to Host

Workshops

$75 flat room rate

You teach, we handle the rest. Set your own ticket price and we'll list your workshop on our website, sell the tickets and take care of check-in. After the class we keep a flat $75 for the room (up to 3 hours, setup included) and send you the rest within a week. Card fees are on us. Multi-week series are $40 per session.

Pop-Ups

$100 flat for the day

Bring your goods and set up shop for the day, up to 5 hours including setup. You keep all of your sales and handle your own payments. Peak holiday weekends are $125.

Other Gatherings

Book clubs, meet-ups, small showers, launch parties, tastings. If it fits in the room and suits the shop, ask us. We'll work out the details together.

How workshops work

  1. Tell us about it. Fill out the form below with your idea, a few dates that work and your ticket price.
  2. We'll confirm the details. Once your date is set, we'll list your workshop on our events page.
  3. Guests buy tickets through us. Everything runs through our website, so you don't need to manage payments or a guest list.
  4. Show up and teach. The room is yours for the class. Afterward we keep the $75 room rate and send you the rest of your ticket sales within a week.

You're welcome to sell your own goods at your workshop or pop-up, and those sales are all yours.

Coffee, Drinks & Something Sweet

Any workshop, pop-up or event in our space can add coffee, beverages, baked goods and snacks from us, at a discounted host rate. It's an easy way to make guests feel welcome, and you don't have to haul anything in.

Please note: All food and drink orders for your event are due 14 days before your event date. We'll send you our catering order form once your date is confirmed.
