Rental Policies & A-la-carte Rates

To inquire about the use of KTOO facilities, call Mikko Wilson at 907-463-6474 or send a message to 360@ktoo.org.

Our production staff knows a lot about technology. We will be happy to be your technology consultants, and will work with you to assure that you get good results.

Here are some basic things you should know about using our space:

Because the space is frequently used for KTOO’s productions, we are reluctant to offer long term rentals of more than two or three consecutive days, but feel free to ask.

Serving beer or wine? If you charge admission or charge for alcohol, we’ll need to see a copy of your special events permit from the Alcohol Beverage Control Board and proof of liability insurance. For everyone’s safety, we will ask that you follow KTOO’s own policy for serving alcoholic beverages at events. Also, we add a surcharge of $85 for events which serve alcohol to handle the extra administrative service and cleaning costs. This surcharge is included in some packages.

If your event involves serving food, you may need a DEC permit. We don’t have a food prep area, but we do have hand washing stations. We charge an additional $85 cleaning fee for food events. This surcharge is included in some packages.

As a non-profit, we understand tight budgets, so the basic room rental is available to Southeast Alaska non-profits at a 20% discount as long as you don’t charge an admission fee. And if you need any of our technology services, we’ll knock off 20% from the regular rates.
