The Alma Somerville

A new creative event space in Somerville MA!

Welcome to the Alma Somerville! The Alma is a 487 sq ft, two-room creative gathering space for up to 30 people. Perfect for birthday parties, baby showers, rehearsals, performances, coworking sessions, workshops, meditation, art classes, and more! Its unique split-level setup is ideal for bringing people together while facilitating separate spaces. The street-level bottom room gets bright light during the day and is great for a small concert, comedy show, reading, or pop-up store. The more intimate lounge space up the stairs can be used as an extension space for whatever is going on downstairs, and on its own is a great space for more private meetings and work sessions. A variety of lighting options adapt the space for both daytime and nighttime activities.

Included in this room:

The Alma is here to be enjoyed creatively and you are welcome to move around any of the furniture to adapt the space to your needs. Extra items stored for your use include: -ten folding chairs -two folding 6-foot x 2 foot banquet tables -three small folding tables about a square foot each -a 3.1 cubic foot fridge if you'd like to store food -two drums and an amp. The Alma also has free WiFi. This is a new space and is still in progress--if you like the space but there is something missing that you need, let me know. Note: the Alma is located in a mixed-use commercial and residential building on a mostly residential street. Out of respect for our neighbors, all events must end by the listed times.
