Frequently Asked Questions
how big is the space?
the studio space is approximately 500 square feet and can easily accommodate up to 49 people depending the room set up. It’s the perfect location for:
rehearsals
small shows
workshops
classes
meetings/community gatherings
and more…
are chairs included in the rental?
Yes. With your hourly rental, you also get access to a number of resources that will help you save money, achieve your goals, and make your event a success. For a full list, please visit our Amenities and Floor Plans page.
can I serve alcohol in your space?
Yes, you can. In order to serve alcohol for a private event (invited only and not sold with tickets), you must pull and sign an additional liability waiver, consent to a credit authorization for damages, and select the upgraded Alcohol Beverage and Food option. You may not sell alcohol without the required license from the City of Somerville and must follow the applicable laws for proper service. For more information, visit somervillema.gov, including obtaining alcohol insurance.
is the baby grand piano available?
No, sorry. The baby grand piano was removed to make the space more flexible for other groups besides pianists. We do, however, offer a professional performance 88-key keyboard with weighted keys and built-in speakers for instruction, private practice, or rehearsal use at no additional cost.
can I schedule a walk-through or site visit?
In order to keep the space affordably priced, we don’t offer guided site visits, but we do offer self-guided site visits. You can schedule one here for half an hour. The Green Room is entirely DIY. We provide remote access, and you set up the room. The images we have accurately depict the space, and because it’s a single room of 500 square feet, what you see is what you get. But we understand that you sometimes have to feel out of the space, so we offer the self-guided option.
what is your cancellation/refund policy?
Clients may cancel a booking no later than one week prior to the date and time of said booking and receive a full refund within 30 business days. Clients will receive a 50% refund on bookings cancelled by the client no later than 48 hours prior to said booking.
Any event that is canceled due to severe weather may be rescheduled at no additional charge. Severe weather is defined as when the MBTA closes operations or a state of emergency is declared by the City of Somerville.
Exceptional circumstances resulting in a cancellation may be taken into account at the discretion of The Green Room. The Green Room reserves the right to cancel bookings for a full refund and will make every effort to give reasonable notice.
