More About Us

Welcome to Common Space! We are an independent retail shop and artist studio, + events venue featuring locally made goods (and plants!). We are a space for San Francisco to come together and support local art and crafts. Whether you are looking for a gift for a special someone, a venue for your next private event, or a place to learn a new skill in one of our workshops - Common Space is here for you!

Common Space is a place to gather our community to support local artists and connect through art and crafts. We source everything in our store right here from the Bay Area.

Our Mission is to support local artist and makers + help everyone reconnect to the creative inside of them. We were all experts in play and imagination when we were children. Creating time and space to reconnect with that piece of us and play is what we are all about.

Our Core Values:

Fun First - we are inviting our inner child out to play. If it is not fun, you are doing it wrong.

No Promises - creating is about the process, not the outcome. Don't be attached to the outcome - it's not that important anyhow.

Be Kind - always and to everyone. To one another & the planet.

We host a variety of events to explore + support our mission. Check out our curent schedule on our Workshops + Events page.
