星期五 Nights at OMCA with Cuicacalli Ballet Folklórico & La Familia Peña Govea

星期五 Nights at OMCA | Live Music with Cuicacalli Ballet Folklórico & Familia Peña Govea, Drag Storytime with Per Sia, Clay Art Making, music set with DJ Chagga Star, and Gallery Chats

Bring the whole family and dive into the vibrant rhythms of Mexico with Cuicacalli Ballet Folklórico and Familia Peña Govea this 星期五 Nights at OMCA! This amazing mash-up will bring Aztec Dance, Zapateados, Faldeos, and Sombreros to life on the garden stage and transport you through the magical culture of México with a captivating blend of music and dance.

Next, get ready for Drag Storytime with the enchanting Per Sia, who will read Just A Minute!: A Trickster Tale and Counting Book by Yuyi Morales. This lively trickster tale, adorned with vivid illustrations and engaging text, celebrates Mexican cultural traditions while introducing counting in both English and Spanish.

Don’t forget to create a memory with a creative clay art making session and then take a moment to get civically involved! The City of Oakland will be a featured table this 星期五 Nights to inform the public of the updates to its General Plan. Oaklands General Plan Update is an exciting chance for everyone in Oakland to help plan what we want Oakland to be like in twenty years. Come talk to City planning staff about your ideas to improve parks, neighborhoods, transportation, jobs, and anything else you want your local government leaders to consider for the future.

After showing your Oakland pride hit the dance floor again with the electrifying beats of DJ Chagga Star. DJ Chagga Star’s set features a global blend of Afro-diasporic club sounds, including amapiano, baile funk, kuduro, soukous, dembow, and house, with a special focus on African artists, women, and queer and non-binary performers.

In addition to an outstanding event experience, every 星期五 Nights at OMCA also offers 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 galleries.

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.
