The first Friday of every month takes on a whole new groove at the Oakland Museum of California! Hear live performances by leading Bay Area artists, enjoy the full cash bar and light dining in our café. A cool, safe and comfortable place for family and friends to get together-all ages welcome! Stroll through our galleries and gardens, relax with your favorite drink, or dance your heart out. Take a break from the music and galleries to practice yoga.

 


December 7
A special Off-the-Wall Weekend Celebration, Dec 7-9, 2007, offers programs and performances for visitors of all ages and interests. The museum needed a three-day party to acknowledge all the voters, curators, civic leaders, donors, and volunteers who helped launch the renovation project. Phase I will transform the Art and History Galleries by late 2009; Phase II includes a new Natural Sciences Gallery and museum store, and improved visitor amenities, by 2011
