Things to See
Here’s a quick look at just a few of the great activities and exhibitions you’ll encounter when you pay a visit to Sacramento’s Crocker Art Museum in your spacious RV rental.
Jules Tavernier: Artist and Adventurer: Take a journey through this early California artist’s career with 100 of his timeless works of art. Jules Tavernier (1844-1889) was born and trained in France, then brought his signature style to the American West. A great lover of his adopted homeland, Tavernier’s artwork features varying subjects, from California landscapes to Native Americans and even erupting Hawaiian volcanoes.
Jazz in the Courtyard: If you’re lucky enough to visit the museum on the third Thursday of any month from May through September, spend some time at Crocker’s courtyard for some world-class musical entertainment. Featuring some of the top jazz acts in the nation, Jazz in the Courtyard is the ideal setting for a romantic night out. This is also a great way to introduce your kids to the intricate rhythms of one of America’s most enduring musical styles.
Collections: Crocker’s Californian collection is one of the country’s most respected art collections and has been in operation since the mid-late 1800s. Originally a private collection, it was gifted to the city of Sacramento by Margaret Crocker in 1885. This gift ignited a wave of generosity, leading to the immense scope of the museum’s various art collections.
