Oakland First Fridays is a safe, inclusive, and vibrant space that uplifts our community and celebrates creativity. Each month, we showcase emerging artists, makers, food vendors, musicians, dance and spoken word cyphers, drum circles, acrobats, magicians, and talented street performers who bring our streets to life.

Our team works hard to keep the First Friday experience magical—but we can’t do it without your support. We’re always looking for enthusiastic volunteers to help in a variety of roles. Whether you’re an individual, part of a student group, a company team, or a community organization, we’d love to have you join us. Past groups have included buildOn, Rebuilding Together, corporate teams, and local high schools. Reach out and let us know how your talents can support the Oakland First Fridays experience!
