Is it possible to get a tour of Paizo offices, to see where the magic happens?

My wife and I splurged last year on 1st Class Airfare and tickets for Paizocon, before Covid-19 put a torpedo in that boat. I rolled over the Paizocon tickets and the airline tickets hoping to attend this year, but that got shot down with the recent announcement that the convention will once again be online. My wife and I planned to arrive early and leave late, to do some sightseeing. Since we can't roll over the airline tickets again, we are going to come out and just do sightseeing (sadly missing the bulk of Paizocon this year in the process, but I don't want to just eat the airline tickets).

I get that the focus will be on the convention Friday through Sunday. Any chance we could get a tour of Paizo's operations on the Wed. afternoon or Thursday before or Memorial Day or the day after?

Hi Lee (and Michelle!),

Unfortunately, most of our staff has been working from home due to the pandemic, and given where Washington State currently is in our vaccine rollout, we're unlikely to be back in the office anytime soon.

That said, Seattle (and the surrounding area) is beautiful in May, so you definitely won't be without things to do! I'm originally from Michigan myself and would often visit out here around the same time of the year, and it was always a nice break from whatever MI weather was wanting to do at the time.

Best of luck!
