Grounded Membership FAQ

What is Grounded?

Founded by Jon and Lisa Hicks (and their family), Grounded is a membership-based, community-driven space designed for connection, creativity, and rest. Part market, part gathering space, part creative hub—Grounded brings together thoughtfully curated products, workshops, and shared spaces to support sensory-friendly living and intentional well-being.

Do I have to have a membership to come to Grounded?

Grounded is a membership-based space, meaning membership is required to enjoy the space regularly. However, if you’d like to drop in from time to time, you’re welcome to access the space by making a donation—this can be money, non-perishable food, or items for our community needs cupboard.

What if I can’t afford a membership?

We never want finances to be a barrier to accessing community. If a membership isn’t an option for you, you can donate money, food, or needed items in exchange for access. If you're unsure what to bring, reach out—we’re happy to work with you.

What’s included in my membership?

 

Your membership gives you:
✅ Priority access to bookings for treatments, workshops, and activities.
✅ One free Grounded-led workshop per month (workshops led by outside vendors require an additional fee).
✅ Access to weekly drop-in events (some may have a small materials fee).
✅ Complimentary snacks, coffee, and tea from our community space.
✅ A welcoming, inclusive space to rest, connect, and create.

 

How much do additional workshops cost?

Workshops range from $15 to $65, depending on materials, facilitators, and what’s included. One Grounded-led workshop per month is included in your membership, but workshops featuring outside vendors will have an additional cost.

How long do I have to commit?

Membership is month-to-month, so you can cancel anytime. No long-term contracts, no hassle.

 

What kind of memberships do you offer?

We offer a variety of accessible membership options to fit different needs. You can find more details on our Membership Page.

Can I use my membership for private office rental?

Membership doesn’t include private office rental, but members get priority booking if they want to rent space.

 

Do I need to register for events and workshops?

Yes, you will need to sign-up in advance for any workshops or events with limited capacity to ensure non-members have access to workshops as well. Members get early access to registration before non-members.

 

How do I sign up for a membership?

You can sign up for a membership online or in person at Grounded. Have questions? Come say hi, or email us at hello@theoneinfiveproject.com. 💛
