Our community spaces are vibrant, mixed-use spaces that are used for classes, meetings, private rentals, and as an art gallery to showcase local artists.
Renting Our Community Space
Willy Street Co-op has two community spaces: Aubergine across from Willy East (1226 Williamson St.) and a room inside our Willy West store (at 6825 University Ave.). Both hold Co-op classes and events, and both are available for private rentals.

Art Gallery
Willy Street Co-op supports providing opportunities for artists to display their work in the Community Rooms or Commons (depending on the store) free of charge. Aubergine art requests will be reviewed by the art committee.
Artwork must be nondiscriminatory and suitable for all ages. Artists may be Owners or the Co-op staff, or come from nonprofits, schools, and other cooperatives and collectives.
Fill out the Art Gallery Consideration Form here. If you have questions, please email gallery@willystreet.coop.
