a few weeks ago we had @queenofcband in the studio for their first photo shoot and shot this dreamy pic of their equipment⋆⭒˚.⋆
its been awesome to see our studiomate @ecntres and his bandmates from @queenofcband experiment, rehearse and grow in our space.

Transparency builds trust. Here's the real story behind the $3509 we're raising:
For the past 6 months, our small team has been deep in cooperative development work—regularly having 8-hour planning meetings, meeting with co-op developers, restructuring our business model, and planning for community ownership.
This essential work meant we had less capacity for studiomate recruitment and marketing, creating a rent gap that now threatens our space.
The $3509 represents both back rent and the investment we've already made in building a truly community-owned future. Every dollar of this raffle helps cover that gap while we complete this transition.
This isn't just about keeping lights on—it's about honoring the work we've already done to become the cooperative our community deserves.
