Between 1940 and 1970\, the Bay Area’s own Black American population increased by nearly 300\,000. The Great Migration transformed the economic\, cultural\, social\, political\, and ecological makeup of the United States. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMITH & CO.: Fifty-Fourth Annual UC Berkeley Master of Fine Arts Exhibition\n\n\n\nClosing July 21\, 2024 \n\n\n\nA collaboration between BAMPFA and the UC Berkeley Department of Art Practice\, MITH & CO. features exceptional works by this year’s MFA graduates. \n\n\n\nThe Barbro Osher Theater \n\n\n\nExperience the best of world cinema on the big screen in BAMPFA’s state-of-the-art theater\, including the following film series:  \n\n\n\n\nHayao Miyazaki’s Spirited Cinema\n\n\n\nFilm Noir Classics: America’s Dark Dreams\n\n\n\nMade in Italy: Morricone\, Leone\, and More\n\n\n\nAnd much more!\n\n\n\n\nOther benefits include; \n\n\n\n\nUnlimited gallery admission and discounted film tickets (for two).\n\n\n\nFree admission to performances\, lectures\, and discussions with artists and filmmakers.\n\n\n\n\nSimply present your OMCA membership card at the Visitor Experience welcome counter and enjoy. \n\n\n\nQuestions or comments?\n\n\n\nPlease contact the OMCA Membership team at membership@museumca.org or 510-318-8520. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nReturn to Events\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPhoto credit: Courtesy of BAMPFA.

Self-described as “a gumbo of styles and sounds from around the globe including roots sounds of world music\, Hip Hop\, funk\, and jazz\,” the Whoadees stay true to their Bay Area roots by bringing a fusion of multiple genres to the mix inspiring you to dance or simply close your eyes and be filled with soulful sounds. \n\n\n\nIf you’re feeling inspired by the creativity we have your back with a great outlet. Come express your creativity and unique perspective in the OMCA galleries with Sketchboard Live Figure Drawing.  \n\n\n\nOMCA welcomes all skill levels\, including those who have never drawn before and want to try drawing. Art supplies and clipboards will be available for use\, and your artwork will be yours to take home or exchange with others. A costumed model representing the diversity of the Bay Area will be posing in the Gallery of California Art for times ranging from 2 to 20 minutes. Since drawing will take place in the gallery\, please be mindful of the space and bring only the following media from home: sketchbooks (max size 9×12 inches) and pre-sharpened enclosed graphite or charcoal pencils. \n\n\n\nSketching in the gallery is included with the price of general Museum Gallery access and free for Museum Members. All this creative engagement will be framed by an exceptional DJ set from Mani Draper featuring Rap\, R&B\, House\, Afrobeat\, and Soul sounds. \n\n\n\nLimited $10 flat rate parking for Friday Nights is available in the OMCA Garage until 10 pm.
