Parking
You’re parking downtown, so plan accordingly. On-street parking is widely available, with varying lengths of parking meter times, etc. There are also numerous nearby lots where, for a couple of bucks, one can park all day. The closest of these lots is almost across the street at the SE corner of Gold and 7th.
Arrival/Wayfinding
The studio is located on the of the north side of Gold Ave, on the second story of the building immediately west of the lovely Boese Brothers Brewery Patio. Sadly, the building long predates the ADA, so no elevator is present. Come in the front doors of the clearly marked “609” building, and up the flight of stairs to your right. We’re at the top of the stairs, double doors on your right!
This event is 18+ only, BYOB (21+ to consume.)
