Lunch next door at Town Fare, great soul food on Oakland Museum of CA’s sunny midcentury terrace overlooking #LakeMerritt. This public park is people-centered brutalism at its best. A multilayered rooftop garden of concrete & greenery, multiple access points, and endless picturesque views. #OMCA
Today’s SF Sketcher event in the gardens at the Oakland Museum. #urbansketching #omca #oaklandmuseum
I got bored today & did a short drive to #OMCA, the Oakland Museum of California. My favorite piece there is "Aristotle's Cage", a little tableau set in the desert. I go in, look at it and it activates my imagination to a degree I haven't seen since childhood.

“I think about the ways in which my family and community have practiced and rehearsed for this moment. The piece you see here is exhibiting some of those rehearsals and questioning, ‘How do we move and how do we create new language, and what does that mean?’” —Oakland artist Adrien Burrell 💫 #OMCA
A single purple Scotch thistle
Before I saw some inside art I took pictures of nature’s art outside the Oakland Museum of California #OMCA #thistle #dailybloom #bloomscrolling My Scottish ancestry makes me a sucker for a Scotch thistle.

2/2 For another perspective on the #JapaneseAmerican #concentrationcamps The #OaklandMuseum location was where #Oakland’s #JapaneseAmericans were told to report to for evacuation to camps. #DorotheaLange chronicled the camps including these photos from our city, many are part of her #OMCA exhibit.
We’re helping our daughter Lailan today @ #OMCA for 12:30 showing of #Kintsukuroi, story of 2 families during WW2 evacuation of 125,000 #JapaneseAmericans bit.ly/41LisRU Proceeds benefit #AsianAmericanStudies summer teacher workshop that she plans to conduct despite OUSD layoff. 🙁
2/2 Proceeds from this showing will help fund a PreK-12 #AsianAmericanStudies Summer Institute in the East Bay for teachers. This is a #DorotheaLange photo from the evacuation in Oakland 1942. Check out more Lange photos of the camps in the #OMCA if you come.

Happy Lunar New Year 2025!
Had a lovely visit to the OMCA, the Oakland Museum of CA for the Lunar New Year.
Was waiting for the Lion Dancers and saw this cloud and said 'that looks like a dragon' and so did a digital draw over in Affinity Photo.

The #FirstSunday at the #OaklandMuseumofCalifornia is FREE. A good way start #BlackHistoryMonth is to visit the #BlackPower exhibit bit.ly/40EQLJW
As the Trump regime tries to erase the history of people of color, we should treasure our #OMCA and its resources.
