Your event at Friendship
When we designed our space in Jefferson Park, we prioritized accessibility and flexibility. This has allowed us to host a wide range of events, including concerts, film screenings, educational events, and board meetings. Our space offers both a large Multipurpose Room for big group gatherings as well as a smaller Community Room for more intimate meetings.
When you add in our commercial kitchen that has a shared use license, the possibilities become endless!
Multipurpose Room (MPR)
Our multipurpose room is 2,000 sq ft of totally flexible space! Outfitted with a state of the art A/V system with live streaming capabilities, we have hosted everything from concerts to pop-up art galleries. We love to work with clients to figure out how to make their vision for the space come to life. Friendship is a brief walk from the Jefferson Park Transit Center, so your guests will have no problem getting here!
Standing Room Capacity: 85
Seated Capacity: 70
Community Room
Our Community Room is an intimate gathering space for board meetings, book clubs, support groups, and more. It is a great space to host workshops, art classes, and tutoring groups!
This room can also be rented while renting our Multipurpose Room to act as a getting ready space or a quiet room that your guests can hang out in.
Standing Room Capacity: 40
Seated Capacity: 25
The Kitchen
The heart of our space at 5150 is our kitchen. It’s where our community gathers every week to prepare and serve a meal, where partner orgs can serve meals, teach cooking classes, make kitchen content, and where enterprising cooks and bakers can launch their businesses. If you’re already renting our MPR, the kitchen is an easy addition so that you have space to serve snacks, drinks, or catered meals from. If you are a chef, baker, or any other type of cook looking for hourly kitchen rentals, click here!
**A certified Kitchen Manager must be present whenever food is being prepared. Interested in having Friendship’s Kitchen Krewe cater your event? Or hiring one of our Kitchen Managers? We’d be happy to discuss it!
