Hi there! If you made it here, that means you’re curious about The Root, the owners or manager is out of the building, or both!
So, we’ll begin with our most common inquiry,
“What is The Root?”
The Root is a coworking space.
co-work・ing
/,kō’wǝrkiNG/
noun
A self-directed, collaborative, flexible, and voluntary work style based on mutual trust and the sharing of common core values between its participants.
That means The Root provides all the amenities of a work space and fosters growth and collaboration across industries so you don’t have to worry about the overhead or office management. We are a place to connect and commune with engaged members, a place of comfort and flexibility, a place to be productive and find effective ways to lead a meaningful, purposeful life.
Really, the best way for us to explain it is to SHOW it to you! Click the button below to take a virtual tour or to schedule an in-person touring experience!
Where do I start?
Below you’ll find some information about coworking and ways to connect at The Root, but if we haven’t met you yet, that’s where we like to start. We’d love for you to schedule a day and time (at the TAKE A TOUR button above!) so we can be intentional about how to best serve you and your needs.
Or if there’s an emergency, you have an inquiry, or you need to call us for any other reason, you can reach Mark or Brigid at 812.725.3724
Day Pass.
Cowork with us for the day to see if The Root community is a good fit for you. Scheduling the day and time you’d like to begin your work day notifies us so we can make sure you’re properly equipped!
Attend an event or learn how to get involved.
FOR EVENTS HOSTED AT THE ROOT OR BY EVERYTHING COMMUNITY
The most valuable thing a coworking space offers is the connection and community among members both inside and beyond the walls.
Many events, initiatives, and community projects have sprouted from The Root. Heart Behind The Art, for example, is a recurring event series featuring local artists, where art is on all platforms. Another recurring series we offer, Community Cleanups, started as a recycling initiative of one of our members and became the focal point of #TheRootRecycles. Now, we collect aluminum, plastic, and glass at nearly every event to get upcycled and recycled back into the community.
To break it down, The Root curates and hosts several events to connect movers, shakers, and doers to create positive change in their community. If The Root is the place to start, then consider Everything Community as an extension of The Root, or the way to branch out.
Everything Community is a mission based around a coworking lifestyle, and promotes making connections not just for business, but for life. If we must network for business, why does it have to be in a formal or boring setting? Everything Community is a combination of events, merchandise, and resources for anyone interested in running their own community, finding their community, or discovering new ones.
