Undeterred by the pandemic’s effects on the events industry, a North Carolina venue owner is full steam ahead on an expansion into Richmond.
Nicole Clayton recently opened the doors at The Loft at Steamer Co. 5, an events venue inside the historic firehouse at 200 W. Marshall St. The 3,000-square-foot space, which opened in mid-February, is the upstairs neighbor of Gallery5, an art gallery that’s been in the building since 2005.
