The open house takes place on Friday, Nov. 9, from 5 to 7 p.m.
Cristin Lawrence, executive director of teen services, along with staff and volunteers will show visitors the facility, which includes a commercial kitchen, computer room, gym, basketball court and meeting rooms.
Lawrence and the teens will briefly talk about the various programs offered by Sonoma Valley Teen Services, including “Skills for Life” work preparedness seminars; the Lovin’ Oven baking program, Ragazzi “pop up” restaurant, healthy cooking classes, the No Name Café barista training, art activities and the Shop musical productions.
