The Zittlel Family Amphitheater is an open air, outdoor performing arts venue and multi-use space in the heart of the Folsom Historic District. The addition of the shade and sun protection structure will create a year-round, any time of day access hub for entertainment and community events. The amphitheater is used throughout the year by many non-profit groups hosting Shakespeare plays, concerts, movie nights and much more. These free events are open to all in the community.
The structural design and artistic renderings of the shade structure were graciously donated by Dokken Engineering’s Folsom office. Sierra National Construction will be constructing the shade structure, with project management being provided by the City of Folsom Public Works Department.
