Level Up Lounge felt like more of a housewarming party than a bar on a Thursday night. The crowd had settled into the chairs and couches as if their body imprint had stayed waiting for them to nestle back into the nook from the last PK Night.

Excited chatter filled every corner, wine swirled in glasses as Gloria Taylor from Todd Taylor Wines gave tastings, Suleka Sun-Lindley made her way around the lounge greeting and entertaining her guests before the show started. The anticipation reached a crescendo as the clock neared 20:20 and the lights went off.

The first presentation had some technical difficulties, but the rest of the night went smoothly.

Aaron Young, R&B and hip hop artist, put together a medley of a few of his songs to showcase the variety of his music. The center room of Level Up Lounge became the stage and a very short, but intimate concert captured everyone's attention.  

Jeff Walker, architect and first-time presenter showed some humorous slides to break the ice and then segwayed to the bulk of his presentation- laser cutting as a process for fabrication. He showed images of the Strata Tower in Dubai that he worked on in its various stages and also a fruit bowl he made using the laser cutting process. 

Richard Burnsed, program director for the Sacramento International Film Festival, presented two short films: "Uh-Oh: A brief Encounter" by Joe Henke and "Dealing With Women" by Julia Vickerman.

Evan Jones's work was scattered around the lounge and her presentation delved into her inspirations for her paintings and what she liked about them.

Thomas Harris and John Krempel also presented on some of their artwork. The PK Night drink was the final presentation of the evening - to see the drink and its ingredients click here.
