The campus theater isn’t just for school plays and band performances anymore. The new Performing Arts Center at Sacramento City College is attracting outside interest from entertainers and promoters looking for a spot to book shows.
With the sound of athletic tape unraveling, bags of ice sloshing and the low buzz of the whirlpool engines, City College’s athletic room is run by a team of highly qualified trainers. In charge of this team is a man who wishes to bring coaches and trainers to an understanding of healing athletes as fast as possible.

Gregory Kondos is a decorated local artist, but his name is most associated with the campus gallery, the Kondos Gallery. Its bare white walls wait blank with anticipation of its newest exhibit.
“That’s What I Figure” is the latest showcase running until Feb. 22 in the Kondos Gallery. At the Jan. 31 reception at the gallery, guest curator and past director of UC Davis’ Nelson Gallery Renny Pritikin pulled together four Bay Area image-makers to create a compilation of figure pieces for a City College audience. Seyed Alavi, Elisheva Biernoff, Travis Collinson, and Ed Loftus work fill the formerly empty walls of the Kondos Gallery with life.
There will be more that meets the eye on Jan. 31 at the Kondos Gallery’s new exhibit, “That’s What I Figure.”
Four Bay Area image-makers will have their exhibits displayed during the opening reception from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. at the campus art gallery.
Don’t miss your chance to see the work of Seyed Alavi, Elisheva Biernoff, Travis Collinson and Ed Loftus at the gallery.
