What Smalltown Means to Me.
Smalltown Society represents a break from the norm in the Castro Valley / Eden area. Not just a physical place for people to gather but a collective of people with a heart for community building and outreach.
The Space has been an inspiring place to connect and to create. In the early days, particularly before there was a thermostat, I spent a lot of time alone in the cold writing or recording.
It has been amazing to see new faces, artists, and passers-by leave a part of themselves with every gathering or casual hang at the Space.
