BROOM FACTORY
By day, the Broom Factory operates as a shared office environment for tenants working in film and media, music, and architecture. By night, the Broom Factory doubles as an all ages, accessible, eco-friendly event venue. Conceptualized by the Kingston Canadian Film Festival (KCFF), RAW Design, and KPP Concerts, the Broom hosts workshops, panels, screenings, live music, comedy, and more. So far, we’ve hosted artists like Kevin McDonald, Shayne Koyczan, Ria Mae, Protest the Hero, Gord Sinclair, Dizzy, and many others. While we program many of our own events, we also welcome various community groups from across Kingston. We strive to create a safe and welcoming space for everyone!
