Sacramento Performing Arts

Bump into Elizabeth Taylor and Ansel Adams at the California Museum. Learn about the lives of the people and places that make Sacramento unique. Exhibits and attractions like the "Hall of Fame," honoring extraordinary Californians and "Riding Concrete," how skateboarding evolved, keep us nuts about California.

Spend some time outdoors and enjoy a nature walk at Effie Yeaw Nature Center located where the Sacramento and American rivers meet. You'll want to bring your binoculars, camera or artist pad to capture the "watchable wildlife" in the area, including wild turkeys, wild birds, deer and snakes. You're sure to appreciate nature even more at this award-winning, 77-acre environmental and cultural education center.

Hidden in the heart of downtown Sacramento, The Inn and Spa at Parkside is a chic and elegant mansion and spa. Your urban oasis is complete with gourmet breakfasts, Italian arias, and candlelit evenings. While visiting Parkside, you're just a stone's throw from the California State Capital and an hour away from Lake Tahoe.
