VICTORIA, BC – February 05, 2026 – PRESSADVANTAGE –
KWENCH Coworking & Culture Club has announced that its primary coworking services, long centred at its Arts & Innovation District location in Victoria, are now being formally introduced to individuals and organizations living and working in surrounding communities across Greater Victoria. The announcement reflects a recent operational update that recognizes and supports the growing regional demand from professionals based outside the downtown core, who regularly use the space for work, meetings, and collaborative activities.
Founded in Victoria and operating from a restored heritage building in the up-and-coming industrial district, KWENCH Coworking & Culture Club has established itself as a central workplace for freelancers, remote workers, entrepreneurs, and teams. While the organization continues to operate a single physical location at 2031 Store Street, its membership base has steadily expanded to include residents from nearby municipalities such as Saanich, Oak Bay, Langford, and other areas within commuting distance of downtown Victoria. This development marks the first time the organization has formally identified these neighbouring communities as part of its active service area.
According to the organization, the decision follows several years of observed usage patterns showing that members regularly travel from outside Victoria’s downtown core to access coworking desks, private offices, meeting rooms, and shared amenities. Increased regional mobility, hybrid work arrangements, and shifting expectations around where professional work takes place have contributed to this change. The update aims to clarify who the space serves and align public communications with the realities of how members already engage with the club.
KWENCH Coworking & Culture Club offers a range of flexible workspace options designed to support varied work styles and schedules. These include hotdesk access for individuals seeking short-term or occasional use, resident desks for members who prefer a consistent workstation, private offices for teams, and bookable meeting rooms for client sessions and collaborative work. Business-grade internet, printing services, shared lounges, and kitchen facilities are available to members, along with access to event areas used for workshops, talks, and cultural programming.
The organization’s downtown Victoria location has become a draw for professionals seeking a central workspace that remains accessible from across the region. The site is situated near major transit routes, cycling infrastructure, and arterial roads connecting downtown Victoria with surrounding municipalities. For many members living outside the city centre, the location provides a practical midpoint between home and clients, partners, or collaborators based in different parts of Greater Victoria.
In addition to the workspace, KWENCH integrates wellness and cultural programming into daily operations. Members have access to an on-site fitness studio, meditation and quiet areas, showers, secure bike storage, and lockers. These elements have contributed to the space being used not only as an office, but also as a regular meeting place for professionals who value social connection alongside focused work.
The expanded service announcement does not involve new physical locations or construction. Instead, it reflects a strategic acknowledgement that the organization’s role within the regional economy has evolved. By formally identifying nearby communities as part of its service area, KWENCH aims to better represent the geographic diversity of its membership and ensure that its communications, partnerships, and outreach efforts accurately reflect this reality.
Regional planners and economic development observers have observed that coworking spaces are increasingly serving as shared infrastructure for distributed workforces. In regions like Greater Victoria, where commuting patterns cross municipal boundaries, centralized work hubs can reduce isolation among remote workers while supporting collaboration across industries. KWENCH’s announcement aligns with broader trends showing that professionals no longer associate productive work solely with proximity to corporate headquarters or single-use office buildings.
Since opening its doors, the organization has hosted hundreds of members and businesses from various sectors, including technology, design, consulting, education, and the arts. Many of these members operate hybrid schedules, combining home-based work with regular use of shared offices and meeting facilities. As housing affordability and residential growth continue to push workers farther from downtown Victoria, demand for accessible, flexible work environments has increased throughout the region.
KWENCH Coworking & Culture Club is independently owned and operated, with its headquarters located in Victoria. The organization confirmed that all services continue to be delivered from its downtown Victoria facility, with no changes to address, staffing, or operational hours. Members from surrounding communities access the same amenities and programming as those living closer to downtown.
The organization stated that this announcement also supports clearer collaboration with regional partners, including local businesses, cultural organizations, and service providers whose staff and audiences span multiple municipalities. By recognizing a wider service area, KWENCH expects to continue hosting meetings, workshops, and events that draw participation from across Greater Victoria.
As remote and flexible work arrangements continue to shape how professionals use space, shared work environments are adapting to serve broader geographic populations without duplicating infrastructure. KWENCH’s update reflects this shift, emphasizing function and accessibility over municipal boundaries. The organization stated that it will continue to monitor member needs and regional work patterns as part of its long-term planning.
KWENCH Coworking & Culture Club was founded by Tessa McLoughlin and operates as a privately held organization. From its downtown Victoria location, the club combines coworking, wellness, arts, and community programming within a single facility. The organization serves professionals across Victoria and its surrounding areas, remaining focused on supporting sustainable, people-centred work environments within the regional economy.
