For the friend who organizes everything

Host with ease, joy, and excellence.

You're the reason the co-op runs. Assembly handles the counting, collecting, and reminding, so hosting feels like hospitality, not project management.

Money

Collected up front, straight to your bank.

  • Set custom registration types: paid or free, student or adult…
  • Registration is confirmed with payment. No chasing.
  • Small processing + platform fee paid by the guest, not the host.
  • Registrations include an itemized, submittable receipt.

What hosting costs

No subscription. No surprises.

Free events
Free

Park days, co-op mornings, moms' nights: host at no cost.

Paid events
Also free for you

The family registering pays the price of their spot + a small processing and platform fee. The money lands in your bank through Stripe.

For partner businesses

Hosting isn't just for parents.

Museums, performing arts, outdoor ed programs, and workshop instructors use Assembly to connect with the homeschool community: recurring daytime visitors actively looking for enriching activities.

What you bring

The venue and the experience.

Your exhibits, performances, classes, and open days, offered on the weekday schedule homeschool families love.

What Assembly brings

The families and the logistics.

Local event discovery, registration, and payment handled. Individual registrations add up to a cohesive group of visitors.

Host questions

Things hosts ask us.

How do guests RSVP?

Straight from the invitation link, in any browser. Creating an account is quick and easy, and registering, including payment for paid events, takes just a few clicks. Once they're in, everyone gets reminders, event chat, and your announcements.

How do payments work?

Guests submit payment directly to the Assembly event host. Capture discounted group rates, pay your venue and cover costs with ease. Set registration prices with as many categories as you need: students, infants, adults. Guests pay for their registration + a small processing and platform fee. Each registration receives an itemized, submittable receipt. The money lands in your bank account through Stripe. You never handle card numbers, and Assembly never sees them either.

Can I book multiple events throughout the year?

Absolutely! You can publish all your events at the start of the school year so families can plan ahead. Or, surprise your friends and create that pottery studio moms’ night out that everyone needs. Assembly will handle the details.

What if I need to cancel or refund?

No problem. Cancel the event in Assembly and it handles the rest: everyone is notified, and paid registrations are refunded automatically.

Who sees my event?

Your call. Events are invite-only by default; you can also publish to nearby families on the discovery page if you want to share with your community.
