The Center of Harmony is a Great Things LLC real estate investment project. Opened on January 14th, 2012, The “Center” has revitalized and reinvigorated the area. The Historic 1875 Opera Hall, located on the second floor, is a unique, intimate & inviting venue for Weddings, Family Parties, Workshops, Yoga, Mediation, Concerts & much more.
The “Healing House” located adjacent on the parking lot and is a part of The Center. It offers Reiki, Massage, Mental Health & Natural Aesthetician services.
The Center and Healing Have have been home and launch point for almost 30 small businesses. 90% of those businesses have been women owned business, and all but a few are still in business. This is something I am extremely proud of and it was an intention focus.
I understand the challenges of small businesses and was able to help with a variety of incentives and programs. Collaboration with regular tenants meetings, event promotions & advertising was a large part of it. Partnering with local business groups, historical societies & the municipal government created a “rising tide”. Several other key businesses in the area had a focus on bringing the arts, music and other events too. This created an amazing vibe in the small town of Harmony, PA (pop. 890).
