Culture and Arts

Local government plays a key role in activating and connecting community partners who share a passion for arts and culture. The City of Citrus Heights serves as a catalyst, bringing together resources, stakeholders, and opportunities that help strengthen the city’s creative landscape.

Rather than directly managing arts programming, the City focuses on empowering and supporting local organizations—such as Citrus Heights Arts, which continues to lead the way in community engagement through initiatives like ArtBeat events and monthly art classes.

To further enhance access to local arts and cultural opportunities, the City has developed this Arts & Culture Resource Hub—a centralized space to discover art-related events, funding opportunities, and community-driven initiatives that keep Citrus Heights vibrant and inspired.

Art and Culture Resource Hub

Celebrating Art, History & Culture in Our Community

Since incorporation, the City of Citrus Heights has proudly supported efforts to preserve local history and promote cultural arts. Through History, Art, and Community Project Grants, the City provides financial assistance to local organizations that are making a difference in our community—helping to cultivate a vibrant arts scene and encourage creative expression.

While the City offers funding support, these organizations are independently operated and play a key role in bringing art, culture, and community connections to life right here in Citrus Heights.

Explore the local organizations below that have received City grant funding and continue to enrich our community through their work!

Citrus Heights Arts is dedicated to enriching the cultural fabric of our city by promoting creativity, connection, and accessibility through the arts.

Our mission is to cultivate a thriving arts community by supporting artists, activating public spaces, and leading the development of the CH40 Arts District a dynamic destination where art, culture, and community come together.

We believe that creative placemaking has the power to inspire, educate, and revitalize, uniting communities and building a more vibrant future for Citrus Heights and the surrounding region.

Our non-profit gets its name from the biblical concept that we are sons and daughters of a King - a royal priesthood. We offer safe, encouraging classes and camps for both males and females, but every dollar of "profit" earned goes to one single cause - building up girls and women to understand that they are true royalty. We accomplish this by working with individuals from all walks of life. From young girls just forming their self-image, to teens/adults who have been mistreated by any organization or any individual in the past, we extend free and deeply discounted opportunities to help with healing.

Citrus Heights Historical Society

Our mission is to preserve and promote the history of Citrus Heights and to give residents the opportunity to share their stories. Although the City of Citrus Heights was incorporated just in 1997, interest in the local history has brought together residents and nonresidents to learn more of the area history. CHHS is a volunteer organization that participates in and offers programs, and special events in our community and helps to raise awareness of historical locations such as the Rusch Home, Sylvan Cemetery and the Wheeler House and the need to preserve them for future generations.
