About PNA Renters
The PNA has several rooms we make available for hourly rentals. On any given day, our buildings are humming with the comings and goings of several groups and individuals using our spaces to gather, learn, meet, dance, sing, play music, exercise, rehearse and practice. We have rooms available for one-time activities to groups meeting weekly or monthly to yearlong tenants.
