SACRAMENTO COUNTY, Calif. — Staying home doesn’t mean you need to be disconnected from art, music and entertainment.
Virtual weekend events range from live-streamed cooking tutorials to drag shows. If you have a computer and some WiFi, then you essentially have a front row ticket.
Here are a few digital activities to enjoy this weekend.

You can catch these chefs and their weekly guests via Instagram live. And this week, 10% of proceeds go to the non-profit WEAVE, Inc.
When: Fridays at 7 p.m.
Where: Instagram, @lastsuppersociety
