Portraits of ordinary women, which include the healing art that helped them through difficult changes in their lives will open at Tangent Gallery, 2900 Franklin Blvd. (at 4th Ave.) in Sacramento, 2nd Saturday, June 12th from 6 to 10 pm.  The gallery is also open on Saturdays from 10 am to 3 pm or by appointment (tangentgallery@gmail.com).  The women are all students at the Women’s Wisdom Art Project, a program of Sacramento Food Bank & Family Services.  Sacramento digital artist and photographer Ann Tracy recruited Woodland photographer George Streng to work on this project with her.  Tracy and Streng wanted to go beyond the standard editorial portrait to create a post modern type of portraiture that includes art work created by the women to celebrate their journeys to increase their self-esteem and give them a sense of pride in themselves and what they have accomplished.

Tangent is an artist-run gallery/studio space established June of 2007.   Its mission is to exhibit dynamic and compelling contemporary art, by both local artists and artists from afar, specifically art that may not be showcased in other Sacramento galleries. Tangent strives to serve the community of Sacramento exposing the art-viewing public to new ideas, mediums and forms while bringing something unique and positive to the neighborhoods of Curtis Park and Oak Park while attracting new visitors to the area.

Women’s Wisdom Project offers a variety of art experiences for women who want to broaden their creative lives.  Designed as a uniquely feminine environment that supports the artistic and personal growth of women in all stages of life, Women’s Wisdom Project believes that artistic exploration naturally brings greater self-knowledge. Classes, which include lunch, are free and taught by professional artists. They include drawing, textiles, clay, mixed media, poetry, gourd crafting, creative writing, and painting with acrylics and water color.

The Women’s Wisdom Project offers a safe, nurturing environment for women of all backgrounds. Through the support of SFBFS staff, volunteers, and other students (each other), women are introduced to art and its healing properties. Thus, women realize their true potentials and learn the importance of imagination, control, patience and emotional discipline. Women working together in an informal setting provide a warm comfortable place for artistic exploration. All women who wish to participate are welcome.

Goblin Gardens also hosts many field trips and may open earlier to accommodate these groups.

Plan to spend a big chunk of your day at Bishop’s Pumpkin Farm. Start by taking a free hayride to the pumpkin fields and pick your ideal gourd right off the vine. After that, why not take a not-so-leisurely stroll in the three-acre corn maze. If getting lost among the corn isn’t your thing, then take a ride on the BPF Railroad where the tracks meander through the jumbo pumpkin patch, through the apple and walnut orchards and by the horse pasture. Before leaving, tackle Coyote Mountains’ 50-foot slide and don’t forget to pan for marbles at the stream below the slide.

Fog Willow Pumpkin Farm is the brainchild of Elk Grove school teacher Stacey Cates. With her family history rooted in farming, Cates felt that students weren’t learning much about agriculture and wanted to do something about it. Hence, Fog Willow was born in 2003. The farm is tucked along the banks of the Consumnes River and is immensely popular with school-aged kids as evidenced by the many school busses making their way to the farm. This is a great location to bring your family as there are lots to do, with a barrel train, hay rides, petting zoo, crafts, picnic area, haystack and barbecue during the weekends. Kids can join the Lil’ Pickers Punkin’ Club ($20) to receive goodies.
