Summary

As real estate prices increase in San Francisco, more and more studios are locating to the East Bay. This all-day event gave people a chance to visit these 15 facilities and to meet owners and staff. Of particular interest were two locations still under construction, giving everyone a unique perspective in studio construction and materials. The day ended with a raffle, open bar and outdoor pizza van at 25th Street Recording - a facility which has opened its doors to AES-San Francisco on numerous occasions in the past.
