Join us for a walkthrough of the Gallery of California History feature Students on Strike with OMCA Curator Ryder Diaz. This exhibition explores the enduring legacy of student activism at San Francisco State University by highlighting the similarities and differences between the historic 1968-1969 student strike that established the nation’s first Black Studies Department and first College of Ethnic Studies and the contemporary campus protests against the war in Gaza.

Join OMCA’s Associate Curator of History, Dania Talley, for a walkthrough of Black Spaces: Reclaim & Remain. Talley will share insights and stories behind this exciting must-see exhibition, which documents and honors how Black communities have creatively resisted displacement and continue to shape spaces of belonging in the East Bay.
