For the people who love it.\n\nAbout The Foundry\nMore than just an event space\, the recently renovated The Foundry SF is a living piece of San Francisco’s dynamic history (built in 1936)\, reimagined for your next unforgettable gathering. While you know them today as The Foundry\, their roots run deep in the vibrant SoMa district\, embodying a legacy of transformation and creativity. \nAt The Foundry SF\, we believe spaces shape experiences. Our mission is to be a canvas for San Francisco’s most inspired gatherings — a place where artists\, innovators\, brands\, and communities come together to create something memorable. \nlearn more about The Foundry SF\nA Note From Our Founder & CEO\, Gina Mariko\nTen years. A whole ass decade. \nIt’s so wild to say that. When I started Make It Mariko 10 years ago\, after tragic family loss\, I wasn’t chasing longevity – I was searching for connection\, purpose\, and community. I wanted to create spaces where people felt seen\, celebrated\, and truly together. \nI didn’t know what to expect starting a business. I only knew that I wanted it to matter. I wanted my life to be meaningful. \nReaching ten years feels surreal. This milestone isn’t just about growth or survival – it’s about becoming. Becoming a better leader. Learning when to push and when to pause. When to hold on and when to let go. \nFor those who know me\, you know symbolism matters. Ten represents completion and renewal – a full circle moment that carries wisdom\, lessons\, and clarity forward. This business has lived many lives\, shaped by seasons of reinvention\, resilience\, pivots\, and pride. \nTo our team\, collaborators\, clients\, and community – OUR “DAY ONES” – thank you for believing in this work and building it with us. LOVE THY CITY is our love letter to San Francisco and to the creatives and artists who continue to show up for this city\, and more importantly – for one another. \nTen years in\, I feel clearer than ever about what we’re here to do. \nThank you for being part of this journey. \nNow… let’s party 🙂 \n \n\nPhoto by Come Plum \n\n \n \n \n \n\n\nLove Your City.\nGet Your Tickets.\n\n✨Got An Access Code?\nThanks for being one of our “day ones”!
