Ladimina's Room - Create Beautiful Music to the Stunning Background
piano book 2. We loved this place and my daughter thought it was such a great experience to play on this 9 foot grand concert piano. Look forward to bringing her back again in the future.
This piano sounds very pretty live but if you want to have an idea...
Brooke B.
Golden Gate Conference Room at Union Square
Beautiful space in a historic building. Easy access and lots of support from Osmin the building manager. One note, this building has a concert venue attached so there can be some sound transfer. The team was very accommodating about it but it is something to keep in mind...

Sun-filled Studio - great for photography!
The space was perfect for our event with 50 people. We held an art gallery display with a mini concert and had enough room to seat people comfortably in a semi circle. A few of the light bulbs were out, but maintenance was able to come in right away to...

Golden Gate Conference Room at Union Square

The host Osmin is incredibly communicative before and during our event, answering all our questions. We planned around the downstairs August Hall concert sound checks to ensure we had the space completely quiet during the afternoon. One of days was around 95 degrees outside and the space was...

Urban Winery Venue for Events & Weddings
fantastic wine selection! We used Eristavi Winery for our chamber ensemble's season opener. As it stands, this was the first time a live concert has been performed in the space and it worked out well acoustically and socially. It was a little tight, as we surpassed what we expected...
