Renting Guild Hall

Thank you for your interest in renting our space. Guild Hall currently remains closed as a venue. Following Broadway's lead, we anticipate that we will be ready to welcome back renters in September 2021 after Labor Day. It is our hope that by that time, as vaccination rates continue to climb and COVID cases fall, we will be able to safely open at full capacity.

If you are interested in booking dates for the fall/winter of 2021 and beyond, please use the inquiry form below to contact us.

Are you looking for something different from the typical studio space or black box for your performance, workshop, meeting or class? Centrally located on 29th Street between Fifth and Madison Avenue, historic Guild Hall is located on the second floor of the landmarked Little Church Around The Corner.  This unique private room is warm and inviting with carpeted floors, vaulted ceilings, and air-conditioning.
