July 16 from 1:00 pm – 3:00 pm at OAKLAND MUSEUM OF CALIFORNIA
Celebrate the summer season and join us at OMCA for “Summer of Joy” - a festive and marketplace featuring artwork produced by artists from the three collaborating studios of Into the Brightness: Artists from Creativity Explored, Creative Growth and NIAD. Support the studios and shop for dazzling prints, ceramics, zines, textiles, buttons, trinkets, jewelry, etc for yourself or as gifts. Artists will showcase existing work and may also create new pieces for sale inspired by the theme of summer and the joy of being together. Artist vendors include Donald Gruneisen, Donzell Lewis, Jean McElvane, Larry Randolph, Lulu Sotelo, and Gerald Wiggins. Come say hello!
This event is the joyful launch of OMCA’s new Spotlight Sundays series. Every third Sunday OMCA invites you to explore a deep dive into topics, experiences, and practices generated by California culture makers. From performances, to provocative discussions, to films, workshops, marketplaces and more, Spotlight Sundays offers opportunities to engage with the people and ideas that drive and shape California and beyond.
