About
OMCA is ready to gallop into the Year of the Horse this February as the Museum marks the 25th anniversary of its Annual Lunar New Year Celebration! Guests can expect a full day of vibrant performances, family-friendly storytelling, hands-on activities, delicious food from local AAPI chefs, and opportunities to support AAPI artisans, all while basking in community connection.
As we come together to uplift AAPI communities across the Bay Area, the Museum is excited to welcome Oakland’s one and only seiji oda to the Garden Stage. Their signature ambient and mindful lofi- hyphy sound will fill the garden alongside several other performances spanning Korean, Pilipino, Vietnamese, and Chinese traditions. From wishing trees and zodiac quests to K-pop dance lessons and Gallery Chats, this milestone celebration invites visitors of all ages to connect, reflect, and welcome the Year of the Horse together.
Festival access starts at 11 am; activities and performances start at 12 pm. Parking is available in OMCA’s Oak Street Garage for a day rate of $10; overflow event parking is available at Alco Park (165 13th Street) for the day rate of $7. ASL Interpretation for OMCA Garden stage will be provided.
The 25th Annual Lunar New Year Community Celebration is made possible in part by generous support from the Oakland Museum Women’s Board.
