The Story

Started in 2016 with Lil Lamberta of All the Saints Theater, Julie Elkins of Gap Tooth Studios, and Heide Trepanier as "LoveBomb", The Temple of the Cosmic Mothership pivoted to a community space in 2017 with Heide Trepanier as Director. The space held up to 12 artist studios and band practice spaces with open supply and tool usage, a community garden, a medicinal herb garden, and a free school until its closure in late 2018
