When searching for a central Houston location to host a speaking engagement - one that offers a…read moreclean, modern, aesthetic visuals - The West Studios instantly came to mind. I attended their soft opening and got a glimpse of the layout and end endless possibilities that could be done with the venue rental. So instead of opting for a pricy hotel conference room and forced inside catering, I got a quote form TWS and booked my full-day rental with ease. I'm not certain what kind of events they're able to host, but the venue served as a great space for a speaking engagement. They have a set up projector and while walls used as screen, some tables for use, sound, lights ... the only thing I brought in were chairs from Aztec Rental. And since they're located down the street, delivery and pickup was flawless. Looking forward to see what else this venue can transform into. I'll def use them again in the future.

This place is very inconspicuous but it's definitely more than meets the eye. Thank God for my Waze…read moreapp because without it I would have not found this place at all. It is in the middle of a neighborhood, across from Sherman Elementary school. The school is definitely the best landmark to help someone who is not familiar with the neighborhood find this place. The facility has no parking lot, so be careful when parking along the street. From what I could tell, the venue does not offer catering services. However, the host of today's art show brought refreshments. It is definitely a no frills sort of place. But it is just as its name says, a warehouse type of venue. Although not a high-end place, it definitely serves it's purpose.

"We Love WiCo" A phrase I hear often when I'm at WiCoWork!…read more Houston definitely needs more places like this! As an entrepreneur, I find this space to be a great motivation and a wonderful change of scene from working at home (where I am almost never as productive), or from the boring 777 office buildings (where, frankly, the people aren't as cool). The awesome, completely renovated house- turned shared office space, is beautifully decorated, and is full of character. The staff actually encourage a TRUE co-working atmosphere with weekly happy hours (yup!), seminars, and sometimes free lunch! I searched this city high & low- looking for a centrally located office space... Regis, Level, Start, Boxer... but THIS place stole my heart! From the time I walked in I felt like part of the family! Plus the prices and the authentic (freshly brewed) Columbian coffee are both AMAZING. In fact, the prices are so reasonable, that I even purchased memberships for a couple of my part-time employees! I've met and networked with some of the members at WiCo and the variety is impressive, there is an expert, or young professional around every corner to help boost your brain, encourage you to work harder, or who simply provide a service that could truly catapult your company. Attorneys, graphic artists, marketing gurus, career coaches, real estate mongols, PR pros, foreign language tutors... you name it... I even met a guy there who is a designing video games geared specifically for children fighting cancer! Um... How awesome is that?! All in all, this place is unparalleled in style, price, positive energy, culture, comfort, (free) parking, and community involvement. Whether you're looking for a place to get inspired, a central meeting space so your clients don't have to trek to your (out-of town) office in Katy or The Woodlands (haha!!), or if you're just there for the free seminars and ridiculously attractive people... WiCo is the way to go!

The way they bring community together through our shared love and curiosity for art, music, film, and literature is truly something to be studied. Sanman Studios (See a Need, Meet a Need), where the event was held, continues to be a hub of creativity. It takes pride in supporting an ecosystem of artists and folks who are genuinely enthusiastic about the arts; and that's exactly what it delivered tonight. The open, spacious studio was filled with unique art pieces and held space for thoughtful dialogue. It's also home to The Reading Room HTX, which houses an amazing selection of Black literature. I absolutely love coming here, time and time again. The programming is always fresh and intentional, the people are warm and welcoming, and you're guaranteed to walk away having learned something, been inspired by something you saw or heard, or even surprised yourself with something you said.

We booked the studio for my daughter's first birthday pictures. Less than an hr before our booking…read moretime (11:30) on a Saturday, we received a call that my reservation would have to be cancelled due to some water leaking into the building from the rain the night before. I was devastated of course. What's worst is the way the situation was handled by Douglas. Although he was not rude, he did nearly nothing to help us. I feel in that type of situation, you would go out of your way to help find another studio. Instead, he sent the photographer a list of 10 studios. (Mind you, I can pull up a list on Yelp just as easily.) My poor husband and brother dealt with my panic but luckily another studio (not on Douglas' list) came through. To top it all off, I was told via text that our deposit would be returned by end of business day on 9/9. It is 10/1 and we are just now receiving our deposit back. While the studio looks nice and the booking process was simple, I guess be cautious if Houston is going to be having any type of rain or inclement weather. Have a backup plan with this studio especially if you have a special event/time you are trying to capture. The customer service was subpar.

I had been in this area because I live nearby and have been to events around the studios but not inside. It was nice to see that there was parking. The room itself is an open space, which makes it great to decorate or set it up any way you like. At this food awards event, each restaurant and coffee shop were aligned along both sides with their respective booths. Each place had prepared at least 1000 bites/beverages or more for all the guests. It's a foodie lover's dream. You had to wait in some long lines, but most of the production went by quickly because the restaurants had prepped and had a team of at least 2-4 people. It was nice to see a lot of places I've been to or ones that I want to try. I walked around and tried at least 10 of the 22 booths for food and drink. Some ran out of forks. VIP has a small space up front near the door and get to enter at 6 pm while general admission enters at 7 pm. The event ended around 9-9:30 pm. If I go again next year, I'll purchase tickets and bring a friend. Divide and conquer. Lol. It was hard to do because the nominee who invited me had to work at his restaurant's booth. It was really cool to see Chris Shepherd from Eat Like A Local announce the nominees and awards and talk about his Southern Smoke Foundation which benefits those in the industry with mental health and hardship. It'll be nice to see other events in this studio space.
