PLR
WHAT IS PLR?
Public Living Room (PLR): A free, weekly, informal space and practice group for kin-making, resource building and free public art experiences, volunteer run at Woodbine Chamber, MaybeItsFate, and public parks in 2026.
*****UPDATE, May 10, 2026
PLR 2026 is a based on a cohort of local community members with support from Woodbine Chamber for creative, informal gatherings. This is a participatory program where disparate neighbors can intentionally foster deeper relationships together.
New visitors to PLR 2026 should plan to come near the beginning (7-730p) or send a message on Instagram ahead of time.
If there is no cohort member present, Woodbine will close at 730p. New members are welcome to join at any point in the year.
In 2026, Woodbine Chamber is intentionally exploring the question:
How might Woodbine Chamber empower a wider community and move toward becoming an organization that embraces cooperative values?
We aim to offer PLR as a path toward answering that question, by creating opportunities for our many disparate networks to bond and identify shared goals.

Film screenings
