Please read the below Community Room Guidelines before completing this form.

Use: 

The vision of the Oshkosh Food Co-op includes building community and we are happy to offer the Community Room for use by our community. The OFC Community Room is available to the public when it is not in use by the Co-op. To assure equitable accessibility to the Community Room, recurring events may only be booked within the calendar year. Those groups wanting regularly reserved meetings may book again after each event. Groups are limited to one event per month, unless the General Manager approves an exception.  

The Co-op reserves the right to decline event reservations that run counter to the Co-op’s mission, vision or ends. This may include anything that conflicts or competes with the Oshkosh Food Co-op’s business. 

We encourage you to support the Co-op by purchasing food and non-alcoholic beverages from the Co-op; however, food and non-alcoholic beverages sourced outside the Co-op may be carried in. Please ask about available prepared foods options in addition to all of our grocery products.

All meetings must end and the Room be returned to the original set-up by the Co-op’s closing time, unless extended hours are negotiated in advance with the GM. Additional fees beyond hourly rental rates may apply.

Availability and scheduling: The community room is available on a first-come, first-served basis. 

To schedule an event in the room please fill out the form below. If you have any questions, please email kitchen@oshkoshfoodcoop.com.
