About this event

Parking, Dining and More

You should plan to arrive 5 to 10 minutes before your workshop starts. That will give you a few minutes to check in at the front desk and get settled in. You can also look around the fun Made in ALX store while you're here!

There's FREE (yes, really) parking underneath the building. Enter 530 First St. into your maps app to find it.
