WE ARE
creating community
The Brownhoist is a for-profit social enterprise uniting creatives, civic leaders, and business owners to maximize the local multiplier effect by recirculating community dollars.
Plainly: The Brownhoist is a creative community of makers and doers dedicated to keeping money benefiting the residents and neighbors we serve in the St. Clair community of Cleveland, OH.
Built in 1880, The Brownhoist building has seen Cleveland grow up around it and remains an impressive hub for commerce and creativity in the heart of the mid-town community. With more than 34,000 square feet of space, this historic building is now home to artist studios, small businesses, creative collaborators, and event space open to all.
