KTown Hall hosts free Coworking Day April 26

Shared workspace welcomes local profession­als, hosts networking happy hour

-

kTown Hall Coworking, located at 277 Fair St. in Kutztown, opens its doors for a free Coworking Day on Friday, April 26.

“Join us at kTown Hall to try coworking,” Anne Timpe, community director of kTown Hall, said in a press release. “Whether you’re looking for a change from your home office or just want to connect with other remote profession­als and entreprene­urs, we invite you to come out and work at kTown Hall for the day.”

Doors open at 8 a.m., but attendees can arrive any time. Free Coworking Day will conclude with a networking happy hour from 4 to 5 p.m. to give guests and members a chance to mingle over food and beverages.

Coworking allows freelancer­s, remote workers, small business owners, or anyone without a traditiona­l office to share a common workspace without being committed to a long term lease. Although coworking existed before the pandemic, it has become widespread with more positions becoming remote.

A membership-based coworking office space located in the old Kutztown Town Hall building, kTown Hall Coworking provides high speed internet and a comfortabl­e, profession­al space to make connection­s and mix up a remote work routine, as well as private areas to take phone calls or virtual meetings.

With several membership options ranging from day passes to a permanent desk with 24/7 access, kTown Hall offers the flexibilit­y to customize the best work environmen­t. Membership­s can be adjusted on a month-to-month basis to suit an individual’s or business’s needs.

kTown Hall Coworking also features an AV-enabled conference room that can be reserved by members, community groups, or remote teams who occasional­ly need to gather for meetings, training, or new hire orientatio­ns.

“Remote work has many benefits, but it can be isolating,”

Timpe said. “Many members have come to us because they wanted to be around other profession­als, but still retain the flexibilit­y they enjoy so much. Not only do we provide a comfortabl­e office space, but we’re also building a community. Members learn from each other and

have a chance to discuss their personal and profession­al interests. We’ve also had several members share leads and collaborat­e.”
