The Learning Shop- Community Space
A welcoming and inclusive community space in Old Hazelton, accessible to all community members and groups for a variety of uses
The Learning Shop has been used for hosting Annual General Meetings, Board training workshops, Gitxsan Language Learning, homeschooling groups, private birthday parties, community sessions, and family-run markets.
The space includes an open meeting/event room, washroom, and can have access to a kitchen - if needed. We also have several pieces of community food-processing equipment (dehydrators, freeze-dryers, pressure canners) that can be used in house to support local food security.
We ask all groups using our space to work to uphold our values and operating principles that are focused on being inclusive, respectful, and person-centred with extra attention to being inclusive of all cultures and community groups as well as working to create safer spaces for those who are most vulnerable in the room at the time.
We aim to be affordable while also managing our over-head costs. If you are interested in using our space or equipment, please contact us and we will make arrangements based on availability, suitability, and costs. Email info@upperskeena.ca or call 250-842-6500
