Since 2002, the Center has worked to strengthen San Francisco's LGBT community and serve as a home where we can enjoy the freedom to be our best – the freedom to be fabulous!  Studio 54, beneath its veneer of bacchanalia, offered its diverse guests a similar freedom and safety to express themselves without judgment.  Like the Center, STUDIO 11 allows everyone to feel like the VIPs they are.
