Act fast—get your tickets today! Join us on May 31 for our annual fundraiser. Taking place in our 7-acre urban garden, W. Kamau Bell will lead a powerful conversation with filmmaker and artist Adrian L. Burrell, CEO of the Black Cultural Zone Community Development Corporation Carolyn Johnson, and New York Times bestselling author of Nightcrawling, Leila Mottley. These Oakland-born artists and community leaders will set the OMCA Garden stage with an engaging dialogue on the power of art and social change. We’ll then celebrate under the stars with entertainment, dancing, food, and drinks.

Get ready for an unforgettable Juneteenth celebration at the Oakland Museum of California (OMCA)! In partnership with Hella Creative, this year’s celebration promises another unforgettable day of community, culture, and delicious bites that pay tribute to Black heritage. Savor mouthwatering dishes from the Bay Area’s top Black chefs and restaurants, groove to live music, and dive into games and activities that honor the richness of Black culture and freedom. It’s more than a cookout—it’s a celebration of heritage, unity, and the joy of being Black. Stay tuned for more details on this can’t-miss event!
