The 22nd annual event moves to a new venue at the Cal Expo to showcase the best ever in quality, variety and one-of-a-kind arts and crafts. The Sacramento Arts Festival has become the premier art and craft show in the Central Valley and has developed into one of the top art festivals in the country.

Attendees have the unique opportunity to observe and interact with artists who will share their creative passion and knowledge. Some artists will also demonstrate their extraordinary talents on site. Guests can shop from ceramics, clothing, decorative fiberworks, furniture, glass, gourd art, jewelry, leather, metalworks, paper, stone, woodworks, drawings, oil and acrylic paintings, watercolors, sculpture, photography and two and three dimensional mixed media.

In addition to the exceptional visual art, the festival features continuous live Main Stage entertainment including the Kurt Ribak Jazz Quartet, the GG Amos Blues Band, and Summertrio, world music band. Attendees are also treated to Restaurant Row where they can indulge in cuisine from local restaurants representing different cultures from around the world including Indian and American cuisine.
