Christa and I are currently working with the leasing agent of this space. It's a 1600 sq ft. - long - rectangle - and 1/2 block south of the Square - just down from Java on the Square and right next door to the Convention and Business Bureau. It's an old store front with lots of possibilities.Right now it is a blank slate that will work really well for our classes, Trike Nights and small performances. It's not perfect (the one bathroom is in the back) and we will only be able to fit around 50 people max into the space because of fire codes. BUT - it is perfect for what we want to do now and will help us be a major player in the Downtown Bentonville experience and growth conversation. In a few years - we will want to build/move into a larger space with a 250 seat theater/shops for building sets, props and costumes and more classroom spaces. I feel confident that with the help of our "Trikesters" - members of the Trike family - we WILL make it happen.
If you happen to be walking through downtown - take a look into the space and let us know what you think.
We'll make sure to have a fun party/open house as soon as we sign that lease!
