Our mission is to foster a thriving community by supporting local businesses and community members through engaging event opportunities. We are committed to creating an environment where businesses can flourish and individuals can connect, grow, and thrive together. By organizing a diverse range of events that cater to various interests and promote initiatives, we aim to strengthen the bonds within our community and contribute to the overall well-being of its members.
Our events are designed to bring people together, encouraging networking, collaboration, and the sharing of ideas. From business expos and networking mixers to the fruit shed festival and family-friendly gatherings, we strive to create platforms where local businesses can showcase their products and services while community members can discover new opportunities and build meaningful relationships. We believe that a strong local economy is built on the foundation of robust community support and engagement.
We are thrilled to announce the new name for our Local Festival, the Loomis Fruit Shed Fest, an exciting celebration that promises to be a cornerstone event for our region. Formally known as the Loomis Eggplant festival, this event has always been about celebrating our community’s agricultural roots and promote a community focused on health and wellness, and the Fruit Shed Fest allows us to broaden that celebration.
This rebranding not only honors our Town’s history but also embraces the future, welcoming a more inclusive and diverse representation of our local produce, our beloved fruit sheds, and downtown district. It will allow for a unique opportunity to revitalize interest and attract a larger, regional audience.
Scheduled to take place on Saturday, October 5th, 2024, the Loomis Fruit Shed Fest will highlight our rich agricultural heritage, foster community spirit, promote health and wellness, and support local business.

Loomis artist Brenda Dominguez, who has been part of the Loomis Art Loop in previous years and has provided beautiful artworks for all to see, is heading up the Chalk Art Contest. “I know this will bring a new dimension to the festival,” Dominguez said. “There’s so much talent in Placer County and this will be a fun place to show it off.”
The Street Chalk Art Contest will have three categories: Children, amateurs, and professionals. Each of these categories will have a first-, second- and third-place winner. The winners will be selected by a panel from the Loomis Chamber and will receive a prize. The public is welcome to vote for the People’s Choice Award.
There is no entry fee to enter, but participants should register by Thursday, September 29th. Walk-ups are welcomed but space is limited.
Drawing size for the three different levels of competition are as follows:
Participants are responsible for providing their own supplies. Only solid non-toxic chalk pastels are allowed; no oil pastels or paint of any kind may be used. Bring a water spray bottle, rags, and a whisk broom. Don’t forget something to sit on such as a stool or gardening pad, a hat, sunscreen and drinking water.
Chalk Art Contest images must be family friendly. No lewd, political, or commercial images will be allowed. No stenciling will be allowed. You may have multiple squares, but only one entry will be allowed in the competition. A limited supply of chalk will be available for purchase the day of the event.
