星期五 Nights at OMCA | Earth Day in the Bay
Outdoor Activities and Performances for Earth Day in the Bay at OMCA, Sketchboard Co. Live Figure Drawing, Music Set by DJ Teao Sense, and Gallery Chats
四月 18 from 5:00 pm – 9:00 pm
This 星期五, celebrate Earth Day in the Bay at OMCA! Join us for an unforgettable day in OMCA’s outdoor garden, filled with games, hands-on activities, and a live Eco Hip Hop performance by DJ Cavem that will bring the beat to the garden of resistance rooted in culture, climate action, and community love. There will also be a traditional ritualist blessing and offering of prayer dances by Danza Azteca Cuauhtonal. This free event, in partnership with Oakland Unified School District (OUSD) teachers and students, celebrates sustainability and environmental themes with arts, sciences, and local culture, all working towards a greener future for the Bay Area. Voices of all ages will be featured, making it an inclusive, fun, and meaningful way to connect with the Earth and each other.
While getting in touch with the Earth, we encourage you to delve into your creativity with Sketchboard Co. Live Figure Drawing! It’s a perfect opportunity to create something personal and unique while soaking in the Museum’s atmosphere. Sketchboard Co. Live Figure Drawing occurs inside our galleries and requires a Museum ticket to participate.
We welcome 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 galleries, please be mindful of space and bring only the following media from home: sketchbooks (max size 9×12 inches) and pre-sharpened enclosed graphite, charcoal, or conté pencils.
DJ Teao Sense will close out the day with a cross-genre journey of global slaps, live percussion, and turntablism. A visionary DJ and multi-instrumentalist, Teao Sense brings his unique sound to OMCA, blending everything from Afrobeats, Hip Hop, Soul, and Latin to Funk, Amapiano, and beyond. In addition to an outstanding event experience, 星期五 Nights at OMCA also offer guests a well-rounded gallery experience with Gallery Chats. Unlike the traditional museum tour, Gallery Chats invites visitors to chat, ask questions, and connect with our OMCA facilitators, who combine content knowledge with lived experience to encourage meaningful dialogue and fresh interpretations of our exhibitions. Don’t miss this celebration of Earth, creativity, and culture—join us for a vibrant day at OMCA.
Limited $10 flat rate parking for 星期五 Nights is available in the OMCA Garage until 10 pm. Learn more about getting to the museum.

Performer BIOS
Eco Hip-hop Artist and vegan chef DJ Cavem coined the term eco-hip hop in 2007 and it has since sprouted into a global movement. His mission to rap about climate change, food justice, and plant-based foods spread far beyond his Denver hometown. Having performed at the Obama White House, been featured in Oprah Magazine and on the Rachael Ray Show, Dr. Ietef “DJ Cavem” Vita has become known as more than just a rapper—he is an activist, educator, and vegan chef. His performances and workshops appeal widely to youth and adult audiences.
Danza Azteca Cuauhtonal is the oldest Aztec Dance group in the East Bay, established in 1990. It is led by Jefa Cristina Mariscal and family under the guidance of elders: Maestra Macuilxóchitl Jefe Pedro Rodriguez of Mexico. Our intentions are to practice and share indigenous rituals of dance and music from Mexico as well as to conserve with sacredness, ceremonial practices that have been gifted by the ancestors to our elders and now to current generations.
DJ Teao Sense is currently dwelling in Oakland, Huichin Ohlone territory. Born and raised in the Bay Area, Teao Sense is a visionary DJ, multi-instumentalist, producer, educator, and founder of the international artist collective, Audiopharmacy Prescriptions. Fresh out of high school, Teao went from selling his first cassette tapes and CDs in the streets of SF to performing internationally at an early age. In 2002, he founded the World Hip Hop ensemble, Audiopharmacy, and toured Europe, Japan, Indonesia, Fiji, Solomon Islands, New Zealand, Samoa, Morocco, Oman, Cyprus, Nepal, Philippines, Bali, the UK, Canada, Brazil, Ecuador, Hawaii, and Tanzania. He has a passion for using music as a tool for social change and delivering a genre-bending journey across anything from Afrobeats, Hip Hop, Soul, Baile Funk, Latin, House, Amapiano, Trap, Dance Hall, Funk, and beyond. In whatever he creates, he aspires to make timeless music that invokes insight and inspiration.
