STAB! Comedy TheaterBeginner Salsa Series: Learn to Dance in 4 Weeks | Sacramento
Build confidence on the dance floor with a four-week beginner salsa series from Paso Unido. Created for brand-new dancers, it welcomes participants with no prior experience and does not require a partner, so you can attend on your own or with a friend.

Level 1 may be repeated to reinforce fundamentals. Some move into Level 2 after one series, while others continue for a few months to deepen technique, and the rotating curriculum keeps the material fresh without feeling rushed. The full series costs $60, with an option to bundle Salsa Level 1 and Bachata Level 1 for $100. Free parking is available.

Laughs Unlimited Comedy Club and LoungeMobile Farmers Market
Fresh, locally grown produce is rolling into North Sacramento with the Mobile Farmers Market, a program that brings sustainably raised fruits and vegetables directly into neighborhoods where access can be limited. Sponsored by Councilmember Roger Dickinson in collaboration with the Center for Land-Based Learning and Sierra Service Project, this traveling market creates a convenient, affordable way to shop while building connections between local growers and the community. The Mobile Farmers Market supports small and beginning farms, pays fair prices, and partners with growers to offer culturally relevant foods that can be hard to find in traditional stores. To lower both financial and physical barriers to healthy food, purchases can be made with SNAP/EBT, and Market Match provides a 50 percent discount for eligible customers. Information is available in Russian, Farsi, and Spanish to reflect the diversity of the communities served. Most offerings come from nearby farms. Roughly 60 percent is grown within 25 miles, and everything is sourced within 100 miles. The effort serves ethnically diverse, low income neighborhoods in Yolo County identified by the USDA as food insecure, responding to a report from Yolo Food Bank that nearly one in three county residents faces food insecurity.

Sutter Health ParkWax and DJ Hoppa: Highway Hotel Tour at Harlow's
Harlow's presents Wax and DJ Hoppa on the Highway Hotel Tour, an all ages show built on the creative spark that ignited when Hoppa joined as Wax's tour DJ in 2024. With a portable studio always close at hand, the pair turned life on the move into constant recording, shaping songs in hotel rooms, green rooms, and the backs of vans during long stretches across the United States and Canada. That momentum led to Highway Hotel, a road-born album that blends Hoppa's raw hip hop instincts with Wax's melodic range and eclectic lyricism, guided by a spontaneous approach that favored honest, in-the-moment ideas. The record features guest appearances from Little Stranger, G Love, K.A.A.N., Jarren Benton, Watsky, Jarv, Demrick, ¡Mayday!, Krysta Youngs, Damn Skippy, Kail Problems, Marley B, 1Ton, SUMPP, and Herbal T.
Harlow'sAn Evening with The Greyboy Allstars at Harlow's
Harlow's presents an all ages evening with The Greyboy Allstars, a group that has helped define American groove music for more than three decades by blending jazz, soul, and funk with hip hop swagger and adventurous improvisation. Emerging from the 1990s San Diego scene, the band made its mark with West Coast Boogaloo, a debut created with funk icon Fred Wesley that powered the West Coast’s acid jazz and funk revival. They expanded that foundation on A Town Called Earth, weaving in cosmic jazz touches and cinematic textures. Both albums continue to influence modern groove culture, frequently sampled and referenced by DJs, beatmakers, and rising jazz artists around the world. The band continues to evolve with Grab Bag: 2007–2023, a compilation of previously unreleased tracks, deep cuts, and left-field gems recorded over the last fifteen years. Spanning tight rhythm workouts to spacey, organ-driven explorations, it highlights a group that remains inventive and deeply in the pocket. The lineup features saxophonist and flutist Karl Denson, whose fiery approach reflects the soul-jazz lineage of Sonny Rollins and the grit of Maceo Parker; he leads his own Tiny Universe and has long toured with The Rolling Stones. Keyboardist Robert Walter, a master of the Hammond B3, supplies deep grooves, rich harmonies, and fearless improvisation informed by acclaimed solo work and collaborations. Guitarist Michael Andrews, also known as Elgin Park, brings melodic focus inspired by Grant Green and Wes Montgomery and the perspective of a celebrated film composer with credits including Donnie Darko and Pharrel’s Piece by Piece. On bass, Chris Stillwell anchors the music with fluid, funky lines that fuse Motown depth with California cool, while drummer Aaron Redfield delivers nuance and power, from crisp breakbeats to expansive jazz interplay, driving the band’s ever-developing sound.
