Hey hey community, flashing back to early spring to remind you of our First Friday open house right here in the heart of Sebastopol!

This Friday, June 5th from 5-8pm, come find us where the food is tasty, the beer is cold, the rhythm stays steady, and the company can’t be matched. Always so good to share the space with our community. We look forward to seeing you there for creativity, conversation, and connection 🫶
