E19-202 is a 1365 square foot room department space reservable through the schedules office. (For comparison, 36-112 is 1035 square feet.) The photos on classrooms.mit.edu suggest that the space could potentially work, but it's unknown whether there are restrictions on who can reserve it. https://mv-ezproxy-com.ezproxyberklee.flo.org/cgi-bin-db-mit/wdbmitscript.asp?report=brl&item=E19 says "E19-202 1,365 CONFERENCE ROOM CAREER SERVICES". The schedules office writes "Room E19-202 is a department space, and is not managed by the Registrar’s Office. I can refer your request over to that department, but I can’t guarantee turnaround time or availability. For DLC (department/labs/center) managed spaces, our team creates a request and refers it over to the individual department on a student group's behalf. If the Squares are still interested in using E19-202 for your meetings, I can create a separate request in the system. However, it can sometimes take quite a while to hear back."
The Community Art Center (119 Windsor St, a block from Royal East) appears to have a few spaces that would work. http://www.communityartcenter.org/space-rental-inquiries has information about space rental, but they did not respond to a webform inquiry in Summer 2017, so try using e-mail instead. http://schoolofhonk.org/ uses their space, so you can check some of their YouTube videos to get a feel for the space. Unfortunately their web page says space rental ends at 10 PM. I assume this means we have to be out of the building by 10 PM, but maybe we only have to end our event at 10 PM, in which case using the space may be more feasible. We do not have any details about cost at this time.
