I moved in February 1st, excited to start my journey back to music…read more I knew I was going to miss a couple weeks, and ended up moving in late on February. The first night, I already could tell this was a waste of money. I was sandwiched between two loud producers, one of which a non-black rapper constantly saying the n word in his music. He also said it outside in the hall. (A white man) I am a lifelong musician, loud rehearsal neighbors aren't new to me- but what bothers me is that this studio is not actually a studio. They are office buildings. There is absolutely NO noise isolation and to top that off, the door I had was broken. After 5 min of my walls rumbling from both sides with absolutely no insulation to soften the blow, so loud my head was throbbing - I realized the lockout owners were likely cash grabbers with no passion for sound. Very different from Sac Rehearsal and the other one off El Camino where you at least get SOME LEVEL of isolation and professional attempts at noise reduction. On top of that- I was offered a tour with a measly $100 off my next room selection. When I attempted to reschedule the tour, their only available hours to do so were 10A-2:45P, Mon-Fri, which as you might expect - will not work for 90% of people who can afford rehearsal studios. When I finally was able to schedule a time, they canceled for a family emergency and rebooked for Monday the 24th, leaving me a measly 7 days of a potential rehearsal experience. When I brought this to their attention, they nastily retorted, "well you've had access to the space the whole time!" A space with no noise isolation that is entirely impossible to think in, let alone rehearse in. Save your money- even if you're a mile away like I am, it's better to go to House of Hits. Even Sac Rehearsal. The only benefit of this place is the "safe" location- but it's really built with no regards to musicians and the customer service is built equally as shitty.

Poor communication with mediocre facilities. Unfortunate, since there is definitely a lack of…read moresupply in the area of rehearsal or art studios. Prices are much higher than the competition for smaller spaces. I tried to rent a room for band rehearsal. Toured the place, told them I intended to rent from them. The communication is very disjointed. They only want to communicate via text, but it's not with a single person. I had literally 4 different people writing to me in the same thread. They sent me the contract but seemed unclear on which unit I wanted even with me sending them a video that I took during the tour. The contract stipulates that you're supposed to do a walkthrough so I had to go back to do that before signing (which I assume is to look for damage since you have to pay a security deposit but I also wanted to make sure they were trying to rent me the right room since there was confusion about that in my texts with them) . I told them I wanted the unit but they won't let me give them a deposit until the contract is signed. Since they only let you schedule tours for about 4 hours through the middle of the work day, I had to take time from work to go back again as soon as I was able to find an available tour time. They texted me in the morning telling me to let them know when the tour is done so that we can move forward. I went and did the tour and took photos, texted them 6 minutes later telling them it's finished and that I'd send the contract as soon as I got home. 45 minutes later I sent the contract, assuming everything is set and waited to find out how to pay them, and it's radio silence from all of them on the text thread all of a sudden. Then 4 hours later they tell me they've rented the space to somebody else. So in the end I wasted my time doing multiple tours in the middle of the day and then got screwed out of the space while none of the 4 people I'd been in contact with had the common courtesy to let me know that somebody else also had a contract in hand for the same room and that I might be wasting my time. The only other space of comparable size they had available is a ridiculously laid out triangle shaped room that smells like urine. So that's definitely out. Very poor communication and ultimately a big waste of my time. Also, none of the rooms I saw looked anything like the photos they uploaded here. I saw stained floors, cracked drop ceilings, poorly painted walls, and some not great smells.

Davis co-working is the best place to get work done. Whether you're tired of working from a noisy…read morehome or just looking to work in a place where you can be creative or serious, this is the place for you. The i-house has a great location in Davis across from the University and has plenty of free parking. It's located next to a nice neighborhood and has parks and plenty of shaded tree-lined streets for a quick walk to get the creative juices flowing. Davis Co-Working has big desks and comfortable chairs, with nice lighting, lots of electrical plugs, coffee and tea, all in a nicely decorated and comfortable environment. It has a nice-sized conference room and clean bathrooms. The wi-fi is top notch! I have used the facility for several years and cannot recommend it highly enough. I would run into the owner once in a while and she is very friendly. Lastly, the price is very reasonable, dare I even say a bargain for the chance to work in such a great environment.

Staff are super nice and will help you if you need anything. They have a gift shop on the first floor perfect for picking up a gift~ I enjoy coming here often because they do have new art on display all the time. So you can enjoy the classics (non rotating long staying pieces) and new ones. Highly recommend this gem of an art gallery!

My employee gave me a recommendation that this gallery had free wifi and you could work there, so…read morewe headed to the gallery after grabbing a smoothie. Outside this location you'll notice two large structures: a cat and a dog. When you enter the gallery you'll see a front desk to your left, one of the staff members greeted us. There are pieces all over the gallery from artwork to sculptures. On the second floor there are multiple metal tables and chairs where you can have a seat and work. There was also a bathroom on the second floor. There was classical music playing throughout the building. It was a nice departure from working in my hotel room and I enjoyed seeing some of the artwork and sculptures on display.

Although I don't take 3-dim art classes here it looks like it would be rewarding to create beautiful mosaics from huge chunks of clay and chipped glass while listening to cool retro background music. There are dramatics classes who rehearse outside behind the stage for the "theatre in the park" productions. There are music classes, singing classes, and a variety of cultural dance classes. As an Added bonus... All DAC dance studio floors are solid tongue and groove wood. Did I mention that wood dance floors are almost nonexistent in Northern California? With that said its the floors that drew me to the Davis art center, as any respectable rhythm tapper would. As a community non profit organization taking classes at the DAC should not burn a hole in your octet book. Plus 1 star for that. Enrollment fees & tuition fees are nominal compared to a private studio plus you automatically become a member of the DAC after enrolling in a class. You should really check this place and take a class for fun. Go ahead and dust off that old Yamaha instrument in the back of your closet...you won't regret it. After all cultural arts classes give your mind an opportunity to create while making new friends from the community.

I brought my Kambala djembe and jammed until the sun set. Djembe masters like Mamadu are rare these days and I was fortunate enough to have networked with him through the Sacramento drum circle rhythm community.

After spending time in one of the rooms, she asked our thoughts and we discussed for a few before going to the next. Would definitely visit again.

Their garden was more beautiful in person, and it was a pleasure to walk through it... along with the other gardens. The Pence Gallery itself is very nice. We stopped by because we had will call tickets for the garden tour. The lady at the front desk was very friendly and welcoming. She gave us a little goodie bag which we appreciated. The place was clean and organize, it was also serene and relaxing. As for the garden tour event, the description on the Pence Gallery website said there would be 7-10 gardens. Sadly, there were only FIVE + a stop at the gallery, and it literally took us less than two hours to do the whole tour. We definitely would have planned our morning differently had we known there were only five gardens. Hoping they offer more gardens next year! Other than that, we had a good experience at Pence Gallery and their garden tour event.

Conveniently tucked behind some auto repair shops and a arc shop. No big visible signage for you to know you're there. So it's not of a hunt. But we found it. I had the pleasure of working here providing some BTS footage for a friend on his music video shoot. That big Cyclorama was everything we could ask for. Plus the facility operator was excellent with helping on setups and ideas. The lighting was perfect. My only hiccup was how damn hot it gets in there!!! lol gotta keep those fans blow full swing to counter that heat.. other than that it's pretty perfect. You can fit about two cars in there comfortably nothin more. There seating, water and a mini fridge on hand in case they're needed. I recommend this spot to anyone looking for good rates and help on filming location with complete studio setups available. Definitely a must rent.
