You just have to wait two more days until our special exhibition, Black Spaces: Reclaim & Remain opens to the public at OMCA, Friday, July 18, 2025! đ
Drawing inspiration from the legacies of West Oakland and Russell City, Black Spaces: Reclaim & Remain pulls from both OMCAâs permanent collection and loans from local repositories to trace the rise of these communities and their subsequent displacement.
In response to this history, the exhibition presents three unique perspectives from an artist, @AdrianLBurrell, architect June Grant with @blinklabarchitecture; and the Archive of Urban Futures with @Moms4Housing. These works reflect the ongoing struggle and success in reclaiming and reshaping self-determined spaces in the face of systemic violence, erasure, and urban renewal.â
Grab your tix for opening weekend! đď¸
