May is Mental Health Awareness Month, and to support the cause, Studio 4/4 and Grooving for Good have put together a night with Guy J. This event will occur on Saturday, May 20, starting at 10PM at Canvas Warehouse in the SoDo area of Seattle. The show will feature a warehouse stage and a tent stage, and many other interesting installations. If you’re looking for a fun night that promotes a great cause, look no further.
The space has evolved into a marvelous artistic space without losing its industrial warehouse roots. Canvas has hosted many different types of events in the past, all of which showcase creativity and connection. Canvas is no stranger to hosting electronic music events, so we’re looking forward to what’s in store for next weekend.
