Artists in Action: A Virtual Townhall for Oakland Artists to Shape the Budget & Beyond

Calling Oakland Artists & Cultural Workers! NOW is our chance to secure resources for our communities. Join us Tues. May 25th, 5:30-7:30 PM for a virtual town hall discussing strategies to affect Oakland’s proposed 2-year budget. 

After a devastating year of pandemic, race-based violence and economic inequities, Oakland's diverse artists and cultural sector are what's needed to rebuild our sense of community and to help us heal. The City’s budget will go before the city council for a final vote in June. How can artists come together to make sure that all of us come back stronger by supporting what makes Oakland Oakland? Plus special guest performances! APTP’s Cat Brooks and James Burch will speak at the event.

ASL interpretation will be provided and the event will be streamed to YouTube and Facebook. Register at: bit.ly/ArtistsInAction
