YSAC offering new virtual event series

To provide a much-needed respite from the ongoing pandemic, Yuba Sutter Arts & Culture is offering local residents the opportunity to immerse themselves in the arts during their new virtual event series, “Art Fix.”

According to a news release issued by YSAC, each event will have a theme and will include art, mixology, live music and more.

“Dress for the occasion and have a blast right from your own home,” it was stated in the release.

The event series will be offered virtually until conditions allow for it to transition into in-person meetings.

The first installment of “Art Fix,” entitled “Cupid’s Capers,” will be Feb. 27 starting at 6:30 p.m. Tickets cost $15 each or $50 for a pack of five and can be purchased at www.yubasutterarts.org.

“Cupid’s Capers” will feature several presentations including themed cocktail mixology by local artist and arts advocate Pam Nowak, a ballroom dancing tutorial live from Boston by Authur Murray dance instructor Alex Cesena, a visual arts presentation and demonstration by local artist Lila Solorzano Rivera and trivia facilitated by YSAC’S Abby Cesena.

“We did a dress rehearsal of this program a few weeks back with invited guests and had a blast,” said David

Read, executive director. “If you are the least bit adventurous and arts-curious, give this program a try. You won’t be disappointed.”

Additional installments of the virtual “Art Fix” event are scheduled for April

24, June 26, Aug. 28 and Oct. 30.
