About The Hollow

The Hollow is a unique creative event venue inside a converted church in Bay City, Michigan. The space is ideal for intimate gatherings, workshops, photo shoots, small performances, community events, private parties, creative productions, pop-ups, meetings, and alternative celebrations. Guests can book flexible areas within the venue, including the main upstairs event space, lounge-style gathering areas, The Odditorium Lounge, and an outdoor back patio area depending on the booking needs. The venue has a moody, artistic, gothic-inspired atmosphere with character, texture, and plenty of personality. This is not a bland banquet room. The Hollow is best suited for guests looking for a memorable, creative, slightly offbeat space with a strong visual identity. It works well for artists, makers, performers, photographers, event hosts, small business owners, and community groups who want something more interesting than a standard rental hall. The outdoor patio space may be available for approved bookings. Because the building has neighbors on three sides, patio use must remain respectful, noise-conscious, and compliant with local noise rules. Outdoor activity must follow host guidance. The space can be used for seated events, casual mingling, vendor setups, workshops, small showcases, content creation, themed gatherings, and private creative rentals. Layout and access may vary depending on the type of event, guest count, and production needs.

Enhanced Health and Safety Measures

The Hollow is cleaned and reset between bookings. Common areas, high-touch surfaces, restrooms, seating areas, tables, counters, door handles, and shared-use areas are cleaned before each event. Trash is removed, floors are swept or vacuumed as needed, and the space is checked to make sure it is ready for the next guest. Guests are expected to leave the space in the same general condition they found it, including removing personal items, decorations, food, beverages, and trash from their event. Additional cleaning may be required for events with food, alcohol, cannabis consumption, vendors, heavy decor, or high guest counts. Smoking-related bookings require prior approval and a $150 refundable cleaning/damage deposit to help cover odor treatment, additional cleaning, burns, residue, or damage. Cigarette smoking is strictly prohibited inside the building. Any excessive mess, damage, stains, burns, strong odor, or cleanup beyond normal use may result in additional cleaning fees.
