I recently had the pleasure of spending time at Desk & Easel, and it was an experience I won’t soon forget. From the moment I walked in, I felt welcomed by the warm and inviting atmosphere. The historic downtown location, filled with natural light and local artwork, immediately set a creative tone.
There are a variety of coworking options that cater to different needs: I opted for the day rate in a shared space, but there are also private offices, a conference room, event space, even a recording studio — they have it all. I especially enjoyed reading on the breezy porch and the various spots for working outside.
Wendy Acosta, the owner, has truly created a supportive and nurturing community. The people I met in the office are always fun, interested, and interesting, making for vibrant “water cooler chat.” Wendy even gave me an introduction to the Intuition Painting sessions she offers — what an incredible way to surface what’s inside of oneself!
Overall, Desk & Easel stands out as a coworking space that combines functionality with creativity and community. It’s not just a place to work; it’s a place to be inspired. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a dynamic and supportive...
Read moreI work remotely and was going to be in the Sherman area for about 2 weeks. I often have to do video conferencing and need fast internet and quiet rooms.
Thankfully, Desk & Easel came up as the closest co-working space.
The space is easy to reach since it is right in the downtown area of Denison. Literally one left turn from the main road leading into the downtown area from HWY 75. Parking is also easy.
The space is not as modern as others I've used, but it gives you more privacy. There are only a limited number of open desks (7 I think), so you may want to call ahead to confirm if they have any available for a walk-in.
The internet is very fast. They have meeting rooms that can be used and free water/coffee/tea. It's also not solely for "tech bros" since other businesses and professionals outside of tech also use the space.
If you are in the area and need fast internet, quiet rooms, and access to a nice main street for food/drinks, then I recommend...
Read moreThe Desk & Easel is a great workspace and wonderful community! There are multiple options to fit most…if not all…working situations and scenarios. I rent a “dedicated desk” and am able to be incredibly productive with a large, electronic standing desk and ergonomic chair. The WIFI is lightening fast, excellent for Zoom calls, responding to email, and pulling down reports from my company’s intranet. The bonus of the Desk and Easel is the people you get to meet and work around…a diverse community of professionals from different fields and backgrounds means there’s never a dull conversation. Owner Wendy Acosta and Community Manager Erin are always looking for ways to be accommodating and go out of their way to make you feel welcomed. After-hours events hosted by Wendy and her husband round out that sense of community. This is a place to get some work done but you will find the Desk & Easel has so much...
