About the event
Our event's Mission and Vision is to preserve Oakland First Fridays as an all inclusive, safe and vital community-driven platform to showcase the emerging artists, makers, gourmet food vendors, musicians, cypher circles (dance battles, spoken word), drumming circles, acrobats, magicians, and many uniquely talented street performers and their audience.
Vision
We strive to be the premier Oakland First Fridays Event as the epicenter for the community to come together to celebrate, sustain & support the arts.
Event History
In 2006, Rock Paper Scissors, a collective of art gallery owners now known as Art Murmur, created a once a month art gallery walk which included “The 23rd Street Fair.” This fair exploded into what is today’s Oakland First Fridays: the most renowned art, music, food and cultural community event in the Bay Area.
In 2013, the KONO CBD non-profit organization assumed responsibility for producing the event each month.Why should you sponsor?
