Workshop · 6 guests · October 2026

We had a wonderful workshop at The Photo Yard. The space manager, Harold, was incredibly responsive throughout the process and was there day of in case of any issues. The space was quiet and equipped with tables and a whiteboard and projector and a little kitchenette. It was perfect for our small team's needs. Highly recommend for small teams that need a creative space to think and workshop!
