North Valley Art League is a hidden gem and beautiful gallery nestled in a gorgeous setting near the Sacramento River, park, and garden. It can be tricky to find but is very worth finding. The exhibiting artists are competent and quite good, with members and featured artists participating in shows. The staff is helpful and the gift shop is not to be missed. It is a great place to admire art, create art, and grab some original art to remember a trip by.
Great art, and a party the first Friday of every month (check the calendar on their site to confirm date).

I remember Carter house natural science museum in the 70's. There were live honeybees viewed in plexiglass, an owl missing an eye, other rescued small animals, science displays and Native American artifacts. So fun! Renaissance fair would be out front every yearđź’—

I always appreciate local art... Well, maybe not always. But most of the exhibiting artists are competent and some are quite good! Staff has been helpful on all my visits!
