DROP IN HOURS: 9 am-4 pm, Mon. through Fri.

During drop-in hours all are welcome to come by, use the wifi, get work done, meet with friends, make new friends, relax, get warm, make art, eat your lunch, use the library, connect with events and find out what happening in our community.

We are fostering a “coffee shop atmosphere” during drop-in hours. Conversation at respectful volumes is welcome. We also invite folks to come and work quietly without being disturbed. Children are welcome in the space with adult supervision.

There is no fee to use Rockweed during drop-in hours. Please consider becoming a member to join our project, support Rockweed and help this space be free and open to all.

Interested in hosting a meeting, class or event at Rockweed?

After 4 pm on weekdays and on Saturday and Sunday the Rockweed Center is available for meetings, events, gatherings, groups, performances, classes and more.

During drop-in hours we ask that folks don’t host large meetings or take over the main space in a way that would be disruptive or make it unavailable for others.

Want to host a meeting at Rockweed during drop-in hours? The “Intertidal Zone” is often available to be booked for day time meetings, especially on Mondays and Wednesdays.
