I made great friends and amazing crafts at Social Medium. I can't imagine my life without this place now, and go often. It's a welcoming space for all good kind people.

-Alyona

I cannot say enough about this little gem within our community. My 13 year old son wants to practically live there. Social Medium's eclectic activities for both, children and adults, is one of a kind and the location could not be better. 

-Ellie

The vibe is welcoming. The staff are quite talented makers and it is clear that this place is a labor of love. The level of thoughtfulness that went into every aspect of the space is very apparent.
