Why This Moment Mattered

We have already welcomed photographers, content creators, small businesses, and community members through our doors. We have hosted events, photo shoots, podcast recordings, and meetups. But there is something about making it official with the Chamber that hit differently.

Rumble Creative Studios has been open and serving the Milford community since 2025, but on April 9 we took a milestone step by hosting our official Ribbon Cutting and Open House in partnership with the Milford Chamber of Commerce. It was a chance to celebrate how far we have come, introduce the studio to new faces, and plant a deeper flag in the community we are proud to be part of.

From the beginning, the vision behind RCS was bigger than just a rental space. As Brad described it on one of our studio podcast episodes:

It would be great if there was just a hub to just have that outlet to do it. Outside of your home. Sometimes people need that space. I think that’s the power of coffee shops and things like that, and I think that’s a little bit connected to why we thought of making a space for creatives.
— Brad Rumble, Co-Owner

The ribbon cutting was a public declaration of that vision. And the community showed up for it.


The Open House

The community showed up. And we are so grateful

The open house gave guests a chance to tour the studio, explore the setup, and see firsthand what RCS has to offer. From the backdrop wall to the podcast corner to the meeting and event furniture, people got to walk through the space and picture what they could build here.

For those who had heard about us but had not yet visited, it was the perfect introduction. For those who had already been in the studio, it was a celebration of what we have built together.


Thank You, Milford

Having the Milford Chamber of Commerce recognize Rumble Creative Studios as part of this community means a great deal to us. And having Mayor Smith officially welcome Rumble Creative Studios to the Devon Community made the day even more meaningful. It was a reminder that what we are building here matters beyond these four walls.

We are not just a studio. We are a space where local creatives, entrepreneurs, and small businesses come to do their best work.

If you have not visited yet, we would love to have you. We are at 427 Naugatuck Ave, right off the highway.
