I want to tell stories of the human condition through music and dance in a way that can inspire people wherever they are.”  \n\n\n\nFlower was directed by Lauren Finerman and features original choreography by Alonzo King. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAccessibility\n\n\n\nOakland Museum of California (OMCA) is committed to providing programs that are accessible\, welcoming\, and inclusive of our community.
