Learn about the challenges facing our community and find out how you can get involved.
We have lined up a great selection of speakers (see below) for this discussion from the SF nightlife community including political figures and club owners. Moderating the panel is Michael Winger, the current SF Chapter Secretary for the Recording Academy.
Speakers:
Debra Walker (Candidate for SF District 6 Supervisor & advisor of SF Music and Sustainability policy)
Mark Rennie (Entertainment Law Specialist)
Terrance Alan (SF Entertainment Commission Founding President)
Tim Benetti (co-owner of nightclub, Bottom of the Hill)
