About This Group

Rental Hospitality Team

A growing number of community organizations and businesses are hosting their events and programs at Cedar Lane. The Rental Hospitality Team is there for the folks who rent Cedar Lane’s facilities for their events and programming. We manage the process of engaging and booking organizations and individuals who want to rent Cedar Lane facilities and provide hosts during rental events. Hosts are available onsite ,while the facility is being rented, to answer questions and accommodate the needs of the caterers, family members, or community and organizational leaders using the space.

Involvement Opportunities

    • Be on-site for part of, or the duration, of an event to help build and sustain our spiritual community.
    • Build relationships with renters and their guests.
    • Answer questions about the building and facilities.
  • Requirements?
    • No commitments.
    • Join our email list, and we’ll let you know when we need help.
    • Flexible hours. Split an event with someone or stay the whole time.
  • Enjoy unique opportunities to meet new community members and vendors, attend interesting events, and sample catering.

Sliding Scale Guide

We know it can be complicated to decide how much to pay, and there’s no one right answer for anyone. Many thanks to UU@UN for providing an equitable model for payments.

Consider paying at a lower tier if many of these are true for you:

  • I am directly affected by environmental racism.
  • I have immigration-related expenses.
  • I’m supporting children or have other dependents.
  • I have significant debt.
  • I have medical expenses not covered by insurance.
  • I receive public assistance.
  • I am an elder with limited financial support.
  • I am an unpaid community organizer.
  • I have been denied work due to incarceration history.
  • I would need to budget in order to afford a $25 expense.

Consider paying at a higher tier if multiple of these are true for you:

  • I or my family owns the home I live in.
  • I have investments, retirement accounts, or inherited money.
  • I can travel recreationally.
  • I have access to family money and resources in times of need.
  • I work part time by choice.
  • I have a relatively high degree of earning power due to level of education, gender and racial privilege, class background, etc.
  • In terms of its impact on my lifestyle (e.g. my ability to pay this month’s bills), $50 means functionally about the same as $15. My bank account would look pretty much the same either way.


A reflection from Pronoia Coaching:

When I pay more, I know that I am helping others to access the event.

When I pay in the middle, I know I am helping the organizers cover costs.

And when I pay less, I know I am letting my community hold me and support me.

All of these are wonderful and acceptable ways of participating.
