About Maplewood

Maplewood Studios


Nestled in a lovingly maintained 1900s home in Old Southwest Roanoke, Maplewood is a place where creativity, healing, and community naturally gather.

Dreamed into being by studio owner Debra Marks and made possible by The Ronny Marks Trust, the space carries a spirit of care in every corner. Inside, you’ll find rooms that hold laughter, music, and stillness in equal measure — and out back,

a sunny garden space for gatherings, deep breaths, and barefoot wandering.


About Our Space

While Maplewood thrives as a community space, it’s also home to individual healing practitioners who run their own private practices. Located upstairs, these practitioners offer focused, one-on-one care in a variety of modalities — from sound therapy to energy work and beyond.

Downstairs, shared group spaces support workshops, classes, and events, while the private studios upstairs offer quiet, dedicated space for deeper individual work.
