    JOY FACTORY

    An artist run social clubhouse in Chinatown with an itinerary of music and art events, supper clubs, movie nights, Factory Forum speaker events and wellness studio sessions. Profits fund a bespoke internship program for people who are ready to get off the streets and into employment, while receiving one on one mentorship with well matched clubhouse members. Our interns are equal members of the clubhouse, receiving all the massage and self care sessions that the paying members do but with no charge, free professional training with our employment partners, free confidence building therapy with experienced counsellors and showers prior to sessions.
