We started dreaming about The Hub in the spring of 2017. The building at 212 Main St. seemed to be a perfect location for being a downtown Ionia hot spot; located directly across from the historic Ionia theater and positioned perfectly on Main St.
Dreams of connecting with people's stories started to fill our vision. The Hub would be a place where the community could share, listen and engage with one another. It would be a safe space to have important community conversations, host game nights, create art and host open mic nights.
With the vision in mind, the space was renovated over the course of approximately 8 weeks. The building was transformed from a mere nice, usable space to a place where people long to be. People are drawn in by the warm, inviting atmosphere and the friendliness of The Hub Crew.
Our goal is to take this space within The Hub, connect with the people around us and cultivate authentic community; to invite others into our stories and to be invited into theirs. We love Ionia. There's no place we'd rather be.
So, we invite you in to our story. Come and see us. Have some free coffee, great conversation and join us in the pursuit of loving this community.
