EDIT: Unfortunately the city of San Francisco deemed our coworking space to be "administrative and not retail" We were forced to shut our doors. We'd love to open it again if possible in the future and will keep you posted.  -Jered


Kicking off the month was Co-working Week 2014! We honored our awesome co-workers with a lovely catered Breakfast and Free Day Passes to hand out to pals! Thanks again to our members for being so rad. 

20Mission is expanding! More desks have been added, creating an even more adaptable and enjoyable co-work environment. We're always looking for ways to make 20Mission fun and interesting. If you have an idea, kick it over to kat@20mission.com 

Here at 20Mission we like all things Bitcoin! Each month Money & Tech hosts the Bitcoin Beginner's Fair, introducing and enlightening those interested in crypto-currency. Be sure to join us at our next BBF, Sept 9th at 7pm and have all your Bitcoin questions answered!

MEMBER OF THE MONTH
Showcasing our members who make 20Mission the great co-working space it is!

On Saturday, June 7, 20Mission and Johny Radio hosted a Noise Hack: a day of building and programming experimental noise and music producing things. Participants built or coded electro-acoustic, electronic, or software noise devices. Then we jammed out!

Enjoy this spellbinding video of the Noise Orchestra, jamming at 20Mission, SF. Turn down the lights, put on your headphones, and press play. Then, scroll down to hear more about the hacking sessions:



Behind the scenes, totally cool people built and demo'd totally cool noise-making devices and instruments. Check it out the video!



Johny Radio taught participants to build the Jar Of Noise: a fun, light-reactive electronic oscillator, based on the Schmitt logic inverter. http://noise.inyourear.org

UGLY SWEATER PARTY!

20Mission Coworking has been officially opened for a solid 4 months and things are picking up! Looking back at our "Open House" party in November, the Robot Dance Party "Spiff" made a great appearance and danced on the Mission streets to some Michael Jackson and Run DMC. 

Picture

Inside, we had a great group art show of local artists featuring works from Alfredo Monster, Stefan Aronsen, Shayna Yasuhara, Charles Peretti, Nak Bou, and Bloejow! Once the party goers came, they had libations and photo booth fun with our very own 20Mission mascot: the #20missiontub. Thats right, we have a beloved tub and everyone jumped in on the photo fun (literally)! With a great crowd, who could ask more? 20Mission did of course! We brought on a great live funk reggae band known as Thunderground Collective! Their positive energy was the perfect ending to a great Open House.

Join us on the fun in our upcoming FREE "Ugly Sweater Party" but we do ask for a toy donation. These fabulous toys everyone will be donating will all go to the kids from "The Boys & Girls Club, Mission Clubhouse Edition"! So come have some tasty free Zinfandel, give a lil, and enjoy the festivities! With new artwork from local artists, a Santa Claus piñata, and live music from the "Brass Magic Band". Come get down with everyone and represent your ugly sweaters. See you soon! ;)

FISHING FOR THE MISSION

Walking down on Mission street, there's always a abundant flavor of culture, people, and diverse food. But where around this area can I get a quiet, clean, friendly place to work? 

Swimming around the block, rises 20Mission! 20th St x Mission St is our very own homey nook work space. With a variety of local artwork, comfy chairs, private phone booths, and yes...Four Barrel COFFEE we want our members to be happy.

Our motto is a friendly fun undivided work environment tailored for those who need to get work done but can have fun and mingle with other techies, designers, and commuters. Hint hint, great for networking ;)

Forget spending endless amounts of money on coffee at cafes or worrying about leaving your laptop to the public when you use the restroom. Say HELLO to complementary snacks, safe and friendly staff members, and high fiber optic WI-FI. Oh, did we mention, 20Mission is literally a few foot steps away from BACON WRAPPED HOT DOGS outside!

Sign up today for a FREE month HERE (limited time only). 

See you soon!
  
The 20Mission Team
