NORTH HIGHLANDS — October 26, 2026. A new round of California Arts in Parks funding includes North Highlands Mutual Aid Fair and Mural Project, an initiative associated with Freedom Park in North Highlands. The named project partner is Broad Room Creative Collective Sacramento, one of 33 recipients in the statewide grant program announced October 20 by California State Parks and partner agencies.

The local project

The grant proposal combines a public mural, community workshops and a Mutual Aid Fair, with an emphasis on strengthening neighborhood connections through creative activity.

The initiative is connected to a specific Sacramento County community; it should not be counted as a city-owned project in incorporated Sacramento.

When will activities take place?

The current grant term is October 2026 through September 2027. These are planned activities, not completed events. Individual grant amounts and specific dates were not provided for this project in the statewide announcement; residents should check the official grantee directory and project organizer for confirmed schedules, accessible participation opportunities, fees (if any) or registration instructions. The broader program emphasizes free, community-centered art experiences.
