About the Hall
A building that belongs to the town
Weavers Hall is run by a small staff and a large group of volunteers. Room rentals and small donations pay the bills, so the things that matter most can stay free.
If you have an idea for a class, a club or a meal, come and talk to us. Most of what happens here started that way.
Pay what you can
Class prices are suggestions. If money is tight, just tell us.
Run by neighbors
Volunteers cook, teach, fix and greet. There is always room for one more.
Rooms to rent
A room for your party, meeting or rehearsal.
Three rooms, a full kitchen and plenty of chairs, priced for neighbors rather than for profit.
- Main hall seats 120, from $40 an hour
- Two smaller rooms for 10 to 25 people
- Kitchen, tables and chairs included
- Step-free entrance and accessible restrooms
Good to know
- Do I need to be a member?
- No. Everything here is open to anyone. Some classes ask you to sign up so we know how many chairs to set out.
- How can I give to the food pantry?
- Bring unopened food to the front desk during opening hours. Fresh produce is welcome on Tuesday and Friday mornings.
- Can I volunteer?
- Yes, please. Stop by the front desk or call, and we will find something that suits the time you have.
- Is the building accessible?
- Yes. There is a step-free entrance on Canal Street, an elevator to the upstairs room and accessible restrooms on both floors.
