About the Programming Space
A space of approximately 1,990 square feet (approximately 26’ x 70’), on the second floor of the Regent Park Arts & Cultural Centre is available for programming use. The ideal respondent will contribute to the ‘learning’ focus of the second floor.
The space has been designed to include an open space, storage closets and three breakout/office-type spaces. Its ceiling is approximately 9-1/2 feet high. The space’s southeast corner is glass, allowing visibility to the main space from the second floor lobby.
This is a rare opportunity for turnkey programming space at below-market rent. The successful proponent may share the space with other organizations, community groups and individuals through rentals or partnerships. In addition, a number of contributions and initiatives will be implemented to assist tenants and welcome them to the Regent Park Arts & Cultural Centre.
