The ARTS have a new home in Rancho!

A Rancho Cordova historic building gets a new lease on life this month as the Mills Art and Culture Center (The MACC) swings open its doors on Feb. 28, 2018.

After a year of renovation and planning, Sacramento artist Danny Scheible will feature “TAPIGAMI”, an exhibit and hands-on workshops, during an imaginative show featuring artistic exploration of an everyday item: masking tape.

The Grand Opening and ribbon cutting for the building will be at 5:30 p.m. Wednesday Feb. 28, with reception and gallery open until 8 p.m. Visit The MACC and TAPIGAMI again from noon-6 p.m. on March 3-4 and March 10-11. Admission is free of charge.

The transformation of Rancho Cordova’s historic Mills Station Building is the result of cooperation and vision by the City of Rancho Cordova, Sacramento County Sacramento Regional Transit and citizen volunteers. Numerous artistic and cultural events are planned for 2018, produced by the Cordova Community Council Foundation. The MACC activities are made possible in part by funding from the City of Rancho Cordova Community Enhancement Fund.

Hope to see you there and at future events!

All We Need is a (Hometown) Hero!

We are surrounded by heroes: first responders, good Samaritans, people who take the time to donate their time, money, and other support to worthy causes or even someone they just met. I am heartened to remember this because the news always seems to focus on the “bad” in the world...

Once a year, Rancho Cordova takes the time to thank their hometown heroes. On Friday, March 9, come join us for a unique and fun celebration of this year’s honorees. It is an inspiring event and you don’t have to be from Rancho Cordova to appreciate and enjoy the hurrahs!

And perhaps it will inspire you to donate some (more) time, energy or funds to a cause that you wish to support. OR to THANK someone that you know of who does... I’m sure it would make their day!
