Dancers’ Group, Theatre Bay Area, and Fractured Atlas have created a new resource for performing arts in the SF Bay Area: http://bayareaspaces.org/.

From the site:

Bay Area Performing Arts Spaces is a comprehensive, state-of-the-art, searchable database of performing arts venues and facilities in the greater Bay Area for classes, workshops, auditions, rehearsals and even performances.

Whether you’re looking for a space to rent or looking to rent your space, Bay Area Performing Arts Spaces is your solution. What’s more, it’s free to search and free to list!

A quick browse shows the site has lots of traditional theaters, but also churches, community centers, even a venue at Childrens Fairyland in Oakland!

The site’s public launch date is November 15th - check it out!

SFStation’s Halloween Guide is now accepting ads, ranging from $250-2000. Just passing on the info.

FunCheapSF.com is a great website full of mostly free events in the bay area. All fun stuff: music, art, festivals, kid stuff. Johnny, who runs it, is constantly on the lookout for new and different things to do, but they have to be free or really cheap. And fun!

BiztechDay is a full day of tips and advice for using social media and the web to market yourself and your business. It kicks off with Tim Ferriss, the 4-hour Work Week author, and ends with Scott Heiferman, the founder of Meetup. Just after lunch, George Wright, the VP Marketing of Blendtec, is speaking - the company that did the viral Will it Blend? videos. Lots of interesting and practical panels inbetween.

If you go, come say hi - I’ll be on the Event Marketing Panel at 3pm.
