The TCF Team Welcomes You!

Anne Kirby founded The Candy Factory (TCF) in 2010 with a simple belief: work is better (and life is saner) when you’re not doing it alone. After building her design and marketing company in 1999 and launching The Creative House of Lancaster in 2006, she saw firsthand how isolating working from home can be—and how powerful shared space and real community can be.

Today, TCF is a thriving coworking campus built for small business owners, remote workers, teams, nonprofits, and anyone who wants a place to do great work alongside great people.

We now have two locations in Lancaster:

• 342 North Queen Street (inside the historic Lancaster Storage building), home to coworking + studios, Sweet Health Fitness, and Jelly Bellies, our uniquely supportive childcare/coworking option.

• TCF Hub 812 North Prince Street, offering additional private offices, flex space, and an elevated media studio for members.

What makes TCF different is the people behind the scenes. The TCF team is welcoming, approachable, and genuinely invested in your success, whether you need help getting settled, making connections, or finding the right membership fit.

Beyond TCF, Anne is active in growing community across the industry, founding the PA Coworking Alliance, leading the Kick-Ass Female Entrepreneurs group, and speaking nationally on coworking and community building. She’s been recognized as a Central Penn Woman of Influence and a recipient of the 2018 SCORE Small Business Award.

Together, Anne and the TCF team support a community of 340+ professionals who come here to connect, collaborate, and build what’s next, without having to do it alone.
