The Great Hall set for an event at 100 River Street

One Room, Many Uses

The Great Hall is a wide-open 6,592 SF space in the heart of the historic mill campus — high ceilings, natural light, and direct load-in access. It seats a crowd for a wedding or a town meeting, and it opens up for a craft market, an art show, or a fundraiser.

Rentals start at a three-hour block. Tables, chairs, and a full AV setup are available as add-ons. Non-profit, municipal, school, and church organizations rent at half the commercial rate.

Every rental carries a $250 cleaning fee and a $500 refundable security deposit. Leave the Hall broom-swept and undamaged and the deposit comes back in full.
