With a large, flexible community space, we have a communal workspace environment for small LGBTQ+ groups, freelancers, entrepreneurs and the like.

With two conference/meeting rooms and six offices, the defining feature of this facility is our comfortable drop-in public area where guests can pick up information about the community, read a book or play a game from our library, access free wi-fi or use one of our public computers, or simply hang out with friendly and welcoming people.
As we expand throughout Brooklyn, this space will continue to house our youth services, drop-in vibe, and workforce development programs.
