Fall Teacher Night

Calling all teachers! In celebration of our school communities, teachers and principals are invited to join us for OMCA’s Annual Fall Teacher Night. 

Stop by a dedicated educators’ lounge to learn more about OMCA’s education resources and connect with fellow teachers and principals. While you’re here, explore the Museum’s galleries, including an introduction to the Gallery of California History and themes related to our latest special exhibition, BeHere/1942: A New Lens on the Japanese American Incarceration.

Then head to the Garden to celebrate the start of a new school year with colleagues and the OMCA community while enjoying the incredible food, live music, and vibrant atmosphere of Friday Nights at OMCA with Off the Grid.

Bring your team! This event is free for teachers and principals, including free gallery admission for all teachers and chaperones, plus Off the Grid food truck and drink tickets for the first 100 arrivals. No RSVP required.
