From online to IRL: Snaps from Gazetteer SF’s launch party

Our first in-person event was a smash, thanks to all of you

A big thanks to everybody who showed up and showed out to our launch party last week. Talking to you all about our mission was reinvigorating; at the end of the day, we want to be a resource for the community, so it was inspiring to hear from everyone about what they’d like to see us cover, and how they’d like to see us grow. 

The good folks at 20 Spot held it down for the evening, keeping a steady flow of food and booze going, not to mention selections from their great vinyl collection. Those who hung out later into the evening were also treated to some flatbread pizza. (I had at least three slices, washed down with some delightful vermouth cocktails.) Thanks to local photographer Arthur Alvarez for the great shots, which you can see the rest of below.

If you couldn’t make it this time around, no sweat. More subscriber-only events are coming your way. (And if you’re not already a subscriber, it’s the perfect time to change that.) See you next time!
