When the art community got together and brought concept to reality in taking the city's blank walls…read moreand transforming them to public art for all ... Wide Open Walls Sacramento was born in 2018. It's always a pleasant surprise to be going about town and seeing masterpieces of art. It brightens up my day. Fun, colorful, and contemporary art. Free for all to enjoy. Brilliant! I don't know how they got organized with an annual festival and an official Board of Directors, but so glad they did. New artists are added annually. Website: wideopenwalls.com. On the website, you can filter by artist or neighborhood to view a virtual map of the murals . The 2020 festival is slated for September. The artwork are scattered about town (downtown/midtown, East Sacramento, Del Paso Heights, Arden, Curtis Park, Oak Park, CSU Sacramento). Each WOW mural has a plaque with the artist name, piece, and a smartphone scan box from which you can electronically download more info. A lot of these murals are accessible in downtown and midtown and are very Instagram worthy. So it would be a fun weekend activity to rent a Jump Bike or Scooter and explore the art and city. #wideopenwallssacramento #publicartmuralssacramento

This is the third class I have taken with Eli. I feel so lucky to have discovered his classes. I…read morelove his teaching style and I always really enjoy everyone I meet in his classes. Eli is so skilled at creating instant community in his classes. He creates a safe space for us all to be vulnerable with one another. And in some ways - singing and performing in front of others is super scary and requires you to be super vulnerable in order to connect with your performance piece. The creation of this community from the first class allows all of us to immediately feel comfortable with one another so that we can get to work and support each other every step of the way leading up to our concert.

I took the Fundamentals of Singing class in 2018 and years later still remember it fondly as one of…read morethe most uplifting activities I've done as an adult. I was nervous and out of my comfort zone -- not having sung since middle school (!) -- but Eli created a fun learning environment so I could set my insecurities aside and jump in. His class gave me so much joy, I'd go home glowing. Take his class!

Shoutout to Folsom, CA! Johnny Cash Trail…read more So you may be wondering... "what is the Johnny Cash Trail?". It's 2.75 miles of a class I paved bike and walking trail that is not a loop. It goes from Historic Folsom to the Folsom Lake Crossing Trail. Why is the trail named after Johnny Cash? Well he wrote and recorded the song "Folsom Prison Blues" in 1952. Yup, he was singing about the prison that the trail runs nearby. No, you can't see the prison yard. So don't think about planning any jail breaks. Anyways, I didn't start my walk at either the two end points. I started behind the Dan Russell rodeo arena which is behind the library parking lot. The arena has a parking lot as well with both free to park. I headed west towards Historic Folsom. There are marked trail signs. This section has a gradual decline/incline which may prove challenging for folks with mobility issues. The trail opens onto the sidewalk on Riley Street, look for Johnny Cash's guitar pick art sculpture. It's a 7 foot tall black bronze sculpture designed by local artist Adan Romo. A guitar pick is at both the beginning and end of the trail. The trail is shared by pedestrians and cyclists, so for goodness sakes follow the instructions on which side of the path you should be on. Plus please be especially vigilant on those hairpin turns and keep an eye on your kiddos and leashed pets. Thank you City of Folsom for creating and maintaining the trail, and adding more art installations.

It was one of those perfect California days where the weather does half the work for you. I finally…read moretook on the full 6.6 miles of the Johnny Cash Trail -- and after living here so long, I'm kicking myself for not doing it sooner. The trail is clean, wide, and full of those quiet moments that make you slow down without even trying. The views hit you from every angle...the rolling foothills, the long stretches of open trail, and those iconic art installations that remind you why this place carries the name it does. Met some cool people along the way too -- the kind of trail conversations that make the miles feel lighter and the day feel brighter. Nothing forced, just good energy and easy connection. In all, it wasn't a bad walk at all... actually, it was the kind of hike that resets you. A little sweat, a little sunshine, a little unexpected community -- the perfect reminder of why Northern California always pulls me back in.

Came here for a kiddo's birthday party in Folsom. Designed to be a play area for your kids to run…read morearound and use their imagination, with a cafe area that has workspace available if you're looking to do some work-from-home work. It's not a quiet workspace, so be aware it's probably not great for meetings. The play area is pretty large - tons of multi-story structures that are safe and thoughtfully designed, with plenty of places to duck and hide and accessories/toys/costumes that kids can play with and use. There are a few party-areas in the back where you can host a small gathering, and the staff is very helpful with setup and take-down, removing a bunch of the headache from the parents for the day. You are welcome to bring in outside food, which is great so you're not stuck w/ cold reheated pizzas if you don't want. There are plenty of large carts to help shuttle things back and forth from your car. Would recommend checking this place out if you have toddlers and little ones that are looking for a new play-house to explore.

She was excited about the Face Painting and chose a Yin and Yang symbol! The Scavenger Hunt was a lot of fun finding things to check off the list, she chose an animal print slap bracelet as her prize! At their bar and Coworking Cafe you can order a variety of drinks, snacks and entrees, with plenty of indoor seating, including a high chair at your convenience! For lunch we ordered the Black Eye, Princess Glitter Milk, Mini Board, Soft Pretzel, Applesauce, Lunch Bunch and Grilled Cheese Tomato Soup from the cafe! My family of 4 enjoyed lunch, best grilled cheese and soup made a good dip! At this fun indoor play place kids and parents can play make-believe in the best way possible in variety of mini town themed areas with costumes for each career! My eldest especially loved dressing up with mommy and playing surgeon in the Veterinarian Hospital and taking care of a baby in the house! Our 1 year old couldn't get enough of the play structure, she enjoyed sliding belly first down into the fun ball-pit lol! They had a variety of push-cars, but her favorite was the Y Bike since she could ride it independently! We'll be back to explore more! They host a variety of events, camps and party packages! $15 for 1.5 hours of open play for a ages 1-10 with 1 adult included, $5 for 2nd parent. $45 a month, $30 for 2nd child, pays for itself in 3 visits! 4% off for cash payments!
