Featured: 2022 Oakland Artist Gala

During the pandemic local creative organizations such as BAMP have faced the challenges of rapid development, making it hard to stay in our communities and do this significant work.

By giving to this campaign you’ll support us in continuing our mission of artistic excellence, education, and community enrichment. We ask that you consider a sponsorship donation, where you will be honored at our event.

Featured: Plywood Murals

In the wake of George Floyd’s death, BAMP and other art organizations have taken to Downtown Oakland, Chinatown to paint plywood boards on storefronts. The boarded up storefronts serve as great canvases to express the need for social change. BAMP hopes that the social justice artwork can be a way to inform, heal, and remind the community of the ongoing current events.
