Finding the Event Space

From the parking garages on Western Ave: With your back to the parking garage, walk South on Western Ave. Use the crosswalk that is located across the Specialty Coffee & Bakery. There are two crosswalks on Western Ave that lead to the Market, so make sure that you come to the one the Specialty Bakery and Kasala. There is a pig at this particular crosswalk. Walk up the stairs to your right and take them to the top. Turn right at the stop of the stairs and you will see signs for the PDA office and the Gum Wall on your right hand side. Walk up the ramp into the Gum Wall area of Post Alley. Turn right and walk south down Post Alley about 50 feet. On the left hand side there is an alcove with an elevator. Use the elevator to come up to the 3rd Floor. When you reach the 3rd floor walk out of the elevator to the left and walk through the doors into the event space.

Coming from 1st Ave: If the Market is still open, the easiest way to get to the event space from 1st Ave is by entering into the Main Atrium. If you are walking north on 1st Ave towards Pike St, there will be a set of double doors before you come to the entrance of the Arcade. Enter into the double doors of the Main Atrium right next to La Vaca Burrito Express (1429 1st Ave). Once in the Main Atrium walk across the floor to the elevator and take it up to the 3rd floor. Once you reach the 3rd floor walk off the elevator to your left and go through the doors into the event space.
