Frequently Asked Questions
Who has to pay?
An individual or group who is funded externally (e.g. through a grant) or operates on a for profit basis is asked to contribute towards our running costs at above rates.
An individual or group who collects fees from participants or from people attending an event or workshop is considered ‘for profit’. These rates are negotiable on a booking-by-booking basis, please talk to us about it. We want the space to be accessible for use, and also encourage people to support it.
Some for profit or funded projects pay a flat fee to rent to space. Another model, typically used with projects that aren't funded, but are selling things (for example a book launch by an independent publisher), we've negotiated for the donation to be a portion of sales. We're open to suggestions and value transparency and mutual aid.
Not for profit and free events are requested to alert attendees to Frontyard’s green donation box and funded-by-community model where our monthly bills and supporters are listed at the front entrance to the building. Suggested donation for attending an event at Frontyard is $10. Monthly bills can be supported through electronic transfer to our bank account.
Do I have to sign a contract or agreement?

This document includes our terms and conditions of your booking and must be signed and returned to Frontyard before you commence your first booking. You will also need to arrange an induction to use Frontyard the first time around, please book a time with us over email in the week leading up to your event.
