Granite Bay CA Autumn Arts Festival
October 28th, 2008 categories: Folsom Lake, Granite Bay, Outdoor Activities, Special Events
Kickoff for new Art & Artist Magazine
Quarry Ponds, the newest shopping center in Granite Bay, hosted a culinary and theatre art festival last weekend that showcased a few artist friends of mine. There was a salsa contest by local chefs, ballroom dance exposition and a raffle for $500 along with the art show featuring local artists from the Folsom Lake area.
The weather was perfect for outdoor activity and I heard that this event will be the first of many for this local center. Since the seasons are changing perhaps the owners would consider a wine tasting dinner or hosting a ZAP dinner but that’s another blog.
Sierra Style Magazine was there promoting their “Saving with Style” program which features local businesses who participate by offering discounts on their products or services. This is a entertainment type card exclusive to local businesses who advertise in the magazine. My artist friends do advertise in Sierra Style so were on hand to promote the festival and offer their support.
I was having so much fun looking at the art and watching the dancing that I forgot to look for a copy of the much anticipated Art & Artist Magazine The art world is expanding in our region and once this magazine hits the stands I think we might have a shot at losing our cow town reputation.
