Parks and Tranquility utilizes the power of art as a tool for community engagement and wellness. Beginning on April 25, Light and Water, Sol Collective, Dr. Lisa Daniels, and Felicia Kemp will lead workshops and guided walks at locations throughout the county.
We're excited to partner with the California State Railroad Museum and Folsom Lake State Recreational Area and the artists selected to create site specific artwork - Amy Melissa Reed, Chris Christion and Jessica Wimbley, and Dan Tran.
Workshops and Programs
Join us for one of the following community programs. Early registration is recommended as space is limited.
In the role of artist residents, Carina Burgher and Zoe Makepeace Wood have been selected to create artwork that reflects the themes of environmental justice and disability rights. This will be shared with participants at select events.
Stay tuned for more information about a dynamic virtual program that will air on our YouTube channel in late May, which will include contributions and performances from ARTners, Cascabel de Dos Ríos, Shonna McDaniels, Shämir Káli Griffin, Ricky Aliae Myra, Ruben Unzueta, and Jordan Gaona Wilson.
Please
contact us with any questions.
Don't forget that you can check out a
State Parks pass and explore the outdoors for free with your library card.
