This month’s Art Mix was everything bicycles. The Crocker knows how to take a theme and roll with it, no pun intended. May is bike month in Sacramento which made the theme a perfect choice. Visual artwork, specialty built bicycles, a runway show by Juniper James and of course cocktails made the night complete. Music curated by the Davis Live Music Collective kept our bodies moving. Aerial Evolution performed a spine-tingling aerial bicycle-inspired routine. If you missed out this month don’t worry! Art Mix is a monthly affair. We’ll see you next month for Pride!
