Guests will enjoy tastes from nearly 40 top wineries, restaurants and breweries, and peruse the work of 20 fine artists during Top of Folsom from 7 – 10 p.m.
The benefit event features unusual performance art presented on the scenic rooftop of the parking structure overlooking Historic Folsom.
Last year, Karen Holmes of Karen’s Bakery Café entertained the crowd by tossing the ingredients of an enormous salad from one floor of the structure to the next. She has similar surprises up her chef’s sleeve for this year.
In addition, a performing artist will create a sculpture before the crowd, to be displayed later at the Folsom Zoo. Last year, the stars of DIY (Do-It-Yourself) Network’s Yardcore created a metal condor that’s now part of the zoo’s bird exhibit.
Top of Folsom guests will enjoy samples from Fat Rabbit, Fat's Asian Bistro, Hawks Restaurant, Karen's Bakery & Café, Red Rabbit, Scott’s Seafood, Source Tapas, Snook’s Candies, Sutter St. Steakhouse and The Waterboy/OneSpeed.
Wineries include Sierra Foothills favorites Amour Prive Winery, Fiddletown Cellars, Madroña Vineyards, Petra Vineyard, Pruett Vineyard, Renwood Winery, Scott Harvey Wines and Yorba Wines. Schug Winery, Titus Vineyards and Westwood Family Cellars will be among those representing Napa and Sonoma.
American River Brewing Company, Auburn Alehouse, Lockdown Brewery, Loomis Basin Brewing Company and Mraz Brewing Company will serve beer.
Twenty fine artists from throughout northern California will display their work, which will be available for sale that evening.
The event takes place on the upper deck of the Historic District’s 4-story brick parking structure on Leidesdorff and Reading streets, offering guests panoramic views of the city. Presented by the Folsom Historic District, Top of Folsom benefits the Folsom Zoo Sanctuary and the Folsom Historic District. Animals from the zoo will make special appearances.
