This class will be led by an instructor who will guide participants through the artistic process while providing all painters with some unique facts regarding the history of Citrus Heights.
The History Behind Citrus Heights
Citrus Heights is a fairly new city, as it was incorporated in 1997. While the city hasn’t been around for too long, it is still rich in history. Below are some resources that will allow you to dive further into the city’s history:
- Historic Plaques – There are historic plaques located at various communal sites in Citrus Heights, including the Rusch Home and the Sylvan Cemetery. These are charming chronicles that represent the rural lifestyle from the mid-1800’s to the early 1990’s.
- Historical Publications – Make a visit to the City Hall and you will have access to many historical publications that detail different points of history related to Citrus Heights.
- The 14 Mile House – The 14 Mile House has been officially designated as a California Point of Historical Interest. This building is the last of many old inns constructed to serve the freight wagons down Auburn Road. The building was built in 1849 and is arguably one of the oldest buildings in Sacramento County.
