Storefront for Community Design is a tenant of 205 East Broad Street, a facility rented by Virginia Commonwealth University. Although Storefront is an independent nonprofit, any use of our space must comply with the VCU Alcohol Agreement Form. If you have not received a copy already, please request the VCU Alcohol Authorization Agreement Form from Storefront. Allow a four week minimum lead time to process all requests.
