Parking: As you face the MHLS big white building, directly to the right is a parking lot (in front of the MHLS Auditorium). If you are coming for a workshop, you are very welcome to park there.
Overflow Parking: If the MHLS parking lot is full, exit the lot down the narrow alley at the back of the lot to Montgomery Street. Turn right onto Montgomery St. Go (straight) through the traffic light @ Market Street and proceed down Montgomery Street past the YMCA to a second traffic light @ Jefferson St. Turn left on Jefferson St. Turn left immediately into the parking lot by the ball field and near Benny's Restaurant. It is a quick walk back to MHLS, about a block and a half.
