Common Hall and Spring Mixer 2026

Common Hall is the annual meeting open to all members of The Furniture Makers’ Company, at our hall in Austin Friars. This is an opportunity for you to hear of our activities and achievements over the past year, with the incoming Master, Jessica Alexander, also explaining her plans for the year ahead.  It provides a unique forum not just to hear what is happening, but for you to ask questions and express your opinions. You, our members, are the lifeblood of the company, and hearing and acting upon your views is a vital element of our success. 

Common Hall is not just about formal reporting, it also provides a platform for those interested in joining or finding out more about The Furniture Makers’ Company. This year we are again inviting members to bring a guest, giving potential new members the chance to experience the fun and networking opportunities membership offers.

Traditionally, Common Hall includes a Freemen’s Admission Ceremony, so please join us to support our new members.   The evening will be finished with a mixer event with wine and canapes, giving members the opportunity to network with existing and new members.

The programme is as follows:

5.00     Freemen’s Admission Ceremony

5.15    The Master’s Review

The Treasurers’ Review

            The Master Elect’s aims for the year

            Followed by a question and answer session

6.00     Mixer event with wine and canapes
