how to apply

Step 1 - Preview Period

If you are interested in our community, you are encouraged to thoroughly check out all of our offerings to sample the breadth of what we offer and meet some of us. Visit our schedule and just start coming! We are open 7 days per week and have at least 4-5 offerings on a daily basis.

Step 2 - Reach Out to Us

Let us know you are sampling the community and thinking about trying to apply for a residential membership. We’ll connect you with a community member or resident to answer some of your questions, connect you with people and help you get the full experience.

Step 3 - Ask for an Interview

Once you are well into your ‘preview’ period and have connected with some community members AND you like what you are experiencing, then you can request an interview with the residents. This will be scheduled for a Sunday evening when we are gathering. This interview is an open forum with us asking you question and you asking us questions. All residents are present so you can learn more about your potential housemates.

Step 4 - Wait

After the interview, the residents discuss your interview and make a vote. Further questions may arise and you may be invited to the final part of the process. If not, we recommend some other resources we think might be a better fit.

Step 5 - Invitation In

If you get a thumbs up on step 3, you’ll be sent a link for a standard online application to capture some information and references. Once validated, you’ll be offered a move in date and whatever room/house is available at that time. Or, you can be added to the wait list.

HEAR FROM OUR FORMER RESIDENTS

Since 2022, we have housed 39 residents. We have a max of 18 beds over 3 properties and usually have about 15 resident-members at any one time. 71% of residents have elevated their habits & health and moved on as a result.

WE CREATE EVENTS & EXPERIENCES TOGETHER

As creative beings, we have the capacity to organize, build, collaborate and thrive in healthy inter-dependence. Our community strives to be a place where you can kick back and receive what you need at times while simultaneously being a place you can dream, create and birth ideas, projects, gatherings, enterprises, etc. If you are a person that has big ideas, bring em! If you can dream it, we can do it. Together we can do anything!
