Come and work at Jewel Envy!
This rental is perfect for those that need occasional work space for a month or a day without officially joining. Our non membership rental is just for you! Daily renters can rent by the day, part time for a month or even full time for a month. Under this type of rental you do not need to meet the same qualifications as you would for membership. You need to show basic proficiency with the equipment and will only have access to the equipment you are familiar with and during regular retail hours. This type of rental is ideal for students and graduates alike that have ideas and just need a place to work from.
Our non-member rates are changing and will take effect as of October 1st, 2024:
- Full time rental $540 plus HST/month (20 days in a month)
- Part time rental $380 plus HST/month (10 days in a month)
- Daily rental $75 plus HST/day
- Hourly rental $16 plus HST/hour
- Lapidary rental

Special Note: 5% of all non-member rental fees collected will be directed to a Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Fund (DEI fund). This fund will subsidize non-member rental for those that self-identify as part of a DEI segment of the population and are in financial need. The aim of this program is to expand access to those who have the appropriate training in the field but do not have access to the funds needed to pursue their goals.
