THAT BEATS THE OLD RECORD OF 65%
IN JUNE 2012.
THE ARTS IN SACRAMENTO IS
EXPANDING.
THE CENTER OF THE ARTS IS
OPENING ONCE AGAIN.
AND WE LOOK AT WHAT'S NEW.
THERE'S QUITE THE PARTY GOING
ON ACCORDING TO ORGANIZERS.
IT'S GIVING NEW YORK STUDIOS A
RUN FOR THEIR MONEY.
THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR, TELL ME
WHAT THIS WILL MEAN FOR
SACRAMENTO?
SACRAMENTO DIDN'T HAVE THIS
CONTEMPORARY ART BASE OF THIS
SIZE AND SCOPE.
THE EXHIBITION SPACE IS
ENORMOUS.
WE HAVE OVER 45 ARTISTS IN HERE
WITH RESIDENT STUDIOS AROUND THE
GALLERY.
A CLASSROOM AND A PRINT MAKING
FACILITY.
IT'S HUGE.
IT IS A TREMENDOUS RESOURCE FOR
THE COMMUNITY.
AND YOU ARE COMPARING THIS TO
NEW YORK, CAN YOU TELL ME WHY?
WE OFTEN GET COMPARED TO NEW
YORK.
I DON'T KNOW -- I'VE BEEN A
LITTLE -- I'M NOT READY TO MAKE
THAT COMPARISON YET BUT I'VE
HEARD IT MANY TIMES AND I'M
FLATTERED BY TIT.
WHAT'S GOING ON TONIGHT FOR
THE COMMUNITY TO GET A TASTE OF
WHAT YOU HAVE HERE?
SO THIS EXHIBITION IS WITH
HIP-HOP AND VISUAL ARTIST FROM
SAN FRANCISCO.
YARO WILL BE PERFORMING AND THE
SHOW WILL BE OPEN AS WELL.
THERE'S 16 ARTISTS IN THE SHOW
AND IT'S AN INTERNATIONAL
EXHIBITION.
THERE'S ARTISTS HERE IN ITALY,
GERMANY, CHICAGO.
IT'S PHENOMENAL.
$7 TO GET IN TONIGHT.
HM-HMM.
THANK YOU.
IF YOU DON'T MAKE IT OUT TO
THE PARTY TONIGHT WE ARE OPEN
EVERY DAY AND IT'S FREE FOR YOUR
ENTIRE FAMILY.
COME OUT AND CHECK OUT COOL
