Artists love to make art and they also know “friends and family” who love to make art! Join I Street Art Studios artists on March 8 2-8 pm for this fun March Second Saturday Show in the big gallery at 1727 I street Sacramento 98511.

Our hidden gem of a studio (found down a narrow walkway) was voted Sacramento’s Favorite Gallery, so come see why! For this show, the talented works of our resident artists will be accompanied by work from their friends and family in the main gallery. Come see who the guest artists will be …you will see some good art! Then visit the 18 resident artists in their 4 adjoining studios and hang out at the kid’s art table (for kids of all ages!) And our artists do love to talk about art. Just ask them!!
