Our studio is centrally located but a little tricky to find. We’re sandwiched in a tiny triangle literally just west of I-5, north of the Rose Quarter Stadium and east of the giant Portland Schools maintenance facility. The studio is located in an unmarked tan building with black metal gate and door. Look for the big, black, “265” over the door. During business hours the door is unlocked, come on inside.
