DC WRITERS' SALON

Open Hours

A bright spot of the pandemic was trying out new ways of doing things. In our experimentation, we discovered that we could offer the studio to members for use on their own, outside of scheduled Salons. 

Here's the scoop on the open hours policy:
  • Members can use the Salon for 1 - 3 hour solo writing sessions as part of their visits. 
  • When interested, check availability at least 4 hours in advance by texting Ali C. (her # is on the welcome page) 
  • If it's available, you'll get a text reply with the door code.
  • Text Ali when you arrive, and then again when all locked up. Easy peezy. 

The fine print: Using the Salon solo is a membership bonus based on trust. We like to meet new members before they use this privilege. We expect members who take advantage will make themselves at home, treating the space as they would their own and leaving it as they found it (including situating furniture and hanging those cleaned cups to dry). 

Finally, a reminder that almost goes without saying: The Salon is a community writing space fostering connection, as opposed to an anonymous co-working space, so solo sessions are meant for writing and limited to a few times per month. In the spirit of camaraderie, greet your fellow writers having their own solo session in the studio.
