Race for the Arts 5K Run/Walk, Kids’ Fun Runs & Free Arts Festival is celebrating 27 years. For the experienced runners or casual walkers, for the young and not-so-young. Run or walk along Sacramento’s shady William Land Park and enjoy entertainment along the way. Experience the arts along the racecourse, on the amphitheater stage and at the more than 35 hands-on arts booths. The Race raises funds and awareness for California cultural, literary, visual, performing and culinary arts organizations and school programs. They receive 100% of Pledges designated to them (Pledges due October 1st). Race for the Arts is good for the mind, body and soul – it’s more than a run it’s an experience!
