Welcome to The Collective Space

As we planned and designed our new permanent home, one of our priorities was to create a space that not only served our team but also served our mission. From the beginning, we envisioned a place where community organizations could gather, share ideas, learn together, and move important work forward without cost being a barrier.

We’re excited to officially introduce The Collective Space, our shared meeting and event space located within our new downtown home at 421 S Center St. We’re offering this space at no cost to qualifying, mission-aligned organizations, because we believe strong communities are built when people have places to come together.

Whether you’re hosting a board meeting, planning a retreat, or facilitating a training or workshop, The Collective Space was designed to support meaningful, community-centered work.

What is The Collective Space?

The Collective Space is a flexible, fully accessible meeting and event space inside our Trust headquarters located in downtown Casper. This 100-year old building was thoughtfully revitalized to serve as a modern community asset.

The space is well suited for:

• Board and committee meetings
• Retreats and planning sessions
• Trainings and workshops
• Community forums and speaker events
• Film screenings and small conferences

The space is equipped with audiovisual technology for meetings, presentations, and video conferencing. Furniture can be arranged to fit your needs, and our staff will work with you ahead of time to make sure the setup supports your event.

Who can use the space?

Generally, the Collective Space is available to individuals and groups who work to benefit wellbeing of our community and its residents. This includes:

• Nonprofit organizations
• Community-based groups
• Organizations hosting events that benefit the communities we serve

Each host organization designates a representative who is responsible for the event and for ensuring all guidelines are followed.

What we don’t host

The Collective Space is not available for:

• Fundraising events
• Political lobbying, campaigns, or partisan activities
• Commercial or for-profit events
• Private celebrations such as weddings or birthday parties
• Events that conflict with our mission or values
• Events that discriminate based on protected characteristics

If you’re unsure whether your event fits within these guidelines, we encourage you review our Collective Space Use Agreement  for full details.

A few frequently asked questions

Is there a rental fee?
No. We do not charge room rental fees for qualifying organizations. Some external costs — such as catering, specialized audiovisual equipment or furniture, or additional staffing — may be the responsibility of the host organization.

When can events be held?
The space was designed to allow for events during or after business hours. Additional coordination may be required to host events during evening and weekend hours.

Can we serve food?
Yes. You may bring your own food, order delivery, or work with a caterer. Alcohol is not permitted at events hosted by outside organizations.

Do hosts need to sign anything?
Yes. All approved events require the host organization to review, sign, and comply with our Collective Space Use Agreement, which outlines expectations around accessibility, safety, inclusiveness, and care of the space.
