Mixin Mingle, Woodstock

Zumba classes. Drumming sessions. Poetry slam workshops. A monthly handmade arts fair called HoneyCraft Market. Though these events may seem disparate, they do have one thing in common—they all take place at Mixin Mingle.

Naté Grindeland opened up the space in 2011, and far from a typical community house, Mixin Mingle adds high-street elegance to events with the help of hardwood floors, and black leather antique-style couches. The storefront serves as an all-purpose space for a variety of organizations and artists of all stripes. Perched on the square featured in Groundhog Day, Mixin Mingle boasts sprawling rooms that can host a wealth of activities including private parties, journaling sessions, handmade soap-making seminars, kickboxing classes, and henna demonstrations.
