Join us for our monthly Verge Artists’ Salon! Every 3rd Wednesday from 5:30-7:30PM.

This program offers a unique opportunity for artists across the Sacramento community to come together and engage in meaningful discussions about various topics and themes related to the arts and creative passions.

Each month, the Artists’ Salon explores a different theme, supported by curated academic readings to enrich the conversation. Sessions are typically moderated by Verge staff, with occasional guest moderators leading the dialogue.

We will ground our discussions in articles, provided to attendees in advance – please give them a read before arriving. You can find articles for our upcoming topic below.

As always, the Verge Artists’ Salon is a FREE event with light refreshments provided. Please feel free to bring something to add to the community table!
