About
OACC’s biggest event returns for its 4th year this February. Join us for a joyous convergence of Asian + African American solidarity on Sat, Feb 7 at our Lunar New Year x Black History Month Celebration!
It will feature lion dancers, drummers, performers, arts & crafts, a Kids + Teens Zone curated by Storyland Collective, a marketplace of local artisans, and free admission for all ages! The full performer list is pending.
This event is part of OACC’s ongoing Open E.A.R.S. for Change initiative, which started in 2020 to build stronger relationships among local APIA and Black communities.
Vendor marketplace applications have been extended to Tuesday, January 13. Prospective vendors can apply at bit.ly/4bnDtsc
