Against the backdrop of Old Sacramento's historic architecture, participating Old Sacramento businesses will celebrate local art, wine, music and food every Second Saturday, 4-7:00PM.

I have always considered Second Saturday to be a Midtown event. However, over the years I have also heard a growing number of complaints that Second Saturday was becoming less of an art walk and more of a party.

Now Old Sacramento businesses including the Artists Collaborative Gallery, Cafe Americain, Delta King, Fat's Catering, Firehouse Restaurant, Skalet Family Jewlers, Steamers Bakery and Cafe, Taylor's Art and Soul, and Ten 22 have teamed up to bring "Art and Wine" to those who may be disenchanted with what Second Saturday has become in Midtown.

It seems to me that Old Sacramento is trying to appeal to a more mature and affluent audience that prefers Jazz and wine over hip-hop and beer.

Note: Practical Cycle is not formally involved with this event, but we do have local art on display from our good friend Kathy Caitano at Artistic Edge.
