Welcome to the SADS Website

The Sacramento Art Deco Society is a non-profit organization, founded in 1991, dedicated to preserving all aspects of the Art Deco period. Our aim is to raise awareness and appreciation of Art Deco. Our activities center around the preservation, education, history, and entertainment of this exciting era. SADS creates new and exciting events to keep the awareness of Art Deco alive.

PRESERVATION
SADS is a member of the International Coalition of Art Deco Societies (ICADS). We participate in projects supporting the preservation of 1920s-1940s buildings in Sacramento and the surrounding areas. SADS presents an award each year to a deserving person or agency.

EVENTS
Enjoying and recreating the ambience of the Art Deco life-style is what makes SADS events! SADS fun events include: auctions, dance classes, theater tours, holiday parties, vintage picnics, car tours, movie nights, museum exhibits, walking tours, special events, and more!
 
OUR LOGO
Our logo was inspired by a detail on the Ransohoff building at 1029 K Street. Using local Art Deco design for our logo underscores SADS local preservation and education endeavors.
