The Sound Factory reception

Ella K. McClatchy Library, 2pm, no cover

Back in the 1960s, the Sacramento music scene looked a little different—specifically, there existed a venue known as The Sound Factory on Alhambra Boulevard. It hosted concerts from bands that would hit the big time, but it only lasted about a year before it closed. Thanks to the work of Dennis Newhall, who collected posters from concerts, we have this exhibit of the artwork, highlighting bands such as Steppenwolf and Santana. Take in the exhibit at this reception, and catch a panel discussion later this month. 2112 22nd Street, facebook.com/EllaK.McClatchyFriends.
