I feel like my review would just mimic so many others that are here, so instead of just telling you…read morehow fantastic this space and it's organizers are, I'll point out some difficulties. The bathroom situation does not thrill me. There is one bathroom with two private stalls, but the second bathroom has only a urinal which is exposed and a private stall. It's a multisex bathroom so it could be a challenge. Like so many other fantastic places downtown, you need great parking karma. I recommend that you plan ahead and enter the Spring Street garage from the Free Street side. You're only one side street away from the entrance to Space Gallery. In the dead of winter, it can be cold in the center of the seating. Dress appropriately. If the venue warns you the event may be filled, heed their advice and either buy tickets in advance online or make sure you show up early. It is a small-ish space and they will accommodate all that they can, but sometimes they have had to turn away folks that are very disappointed. I am a member of space gallery and feel that this $40 was some of the best spent money in this town. I truly love the programming, the presentation, and the overall atmosphere and attitude of all involved with Space Gallery. Highly recommended

At the time when I received the gift the goblets weren't ready, but will soon be. Zafer holds a high degree of quality and the glace and color need to be perfect for him to sell it, worth the wait for us! Can't wait to see the goblets in this picture soon, but for now we enjoy the wine carafe which is such a beautiful statement piece and fun to pull out during a special dinner! Can also use as a water carafe of course. Highly recommend. Update: the goblets turned out beautiful see picture, Zafer's word is golden. Such a joy to do business with an artist like him.
