Huh ...
Here are some of the space and ancillary requirements we have found work well in the past.
A hall or large room approx. 15' X 20' or larger. (About the size of a 2 or 3 car garage. two car garage - check
One table for each participant plus two extras for the instructor and samples. The tables need to be able to hold the fabric for one kilt at a minimum.
Enough chairs to seat everyone including guests, visitors, & family that may drop in from time to time.
Electrical outlets and extension cords for the lamps and task lighting for each participant. outlets on each wall - check
Good ceiling lights or windows to keep the room well lighted. overhead lights and skylights, windows on exterior walls - check
Trash cans as necessary. check
Then there are to ancillary things that make to experience enjoyable such as access to a restaurant, coffee shop, or other lunch place. The participants should be able to find lunch without driving an hour each way. a relaxing walk or five minute drive - check
Other food outlets nearby for the participants to have their evening meals. check
Some sort of tourist attractions nearby for family and friends to pass the day. That's a toughy - oh wait, Niagara Falls ... Erie Canal ... Fallsview Casino - check
A pub, bar or other gathering place where a dram my be found. A good place for a Kilt Night is a big plus. pubs in U.S. and Canada - check
Then any other things which would make the experience enjoyable. If a Highland Games, festival, or fair were going on at the same time it would be nice. plenty of games, festivals, and fairs, throughout the summer; easy driving distance for Barb, Robert, and Pete; see the world famous Rubber Chicken Sporran - check
Each venue we have found in the past has be different and unique. Each offered a different experience for the participants.
Are you raising your hand?
 
Wait, what am I thinking? 
I barely have time to organize my own life, much less a workshop!
Where did the old "Delete Post" button go!?
