Artists in Government

The five selected local artists, who have backgrounds in media, performance, and visual arts, work closely with department teams to create messaging that reflects department priorities and the many communities they serve. 

The artists also engage in local outreach activities to better meet the needs of Sacramento’s diverse neighborhoods and constituencies.

The California Arts Council Creative Corps Program makes these one-year, full-time paid positions possible.
