Hi Chris,

We, here in Northern California, are looking forward to your arrival. Bradley Hall is a terrific place for these events, it has a stage area, lots of room for seating an audience and/or painting from models. The whole building which was built in 1910 is quite elegant, except the elevator, lever operated, is a relic.

In the past we've wrapped up the event with a get-together at a local restaurant, there are plenty of great ones in the neighborhood.

We love having an annual PSA event in our own backyard and, since we requested you as an instructor, we're glad you're coming!

See you soon,

Pam
