Patris Studio and Gallery Featured On Nationwide Streaming App

 On November 8, 2022, Patris Studio was chosen to be one of the settings for Sacramento's first filming of th digital reality show "Local Love Sacramento," a Very Local Original series which sets one local single on three blind dates. Each date will feature unique things to do in Sacramento.

The first episode of Local Love Sacramento premiered on May 30 and features single Samuel - a man on the move looking to find the right woman to settle down with and start a family in Sacramento.  He’s in for a treat with a trip to a goat farm, a loop around a roller-skating rink and a very revealing art experience. Can you guess who he will ultimately pick for a second date? Will the pair hit it off on a second outing in the city? Find out on “Local Love Sacramento.” A Very Local Original Series.
