Creative Placemaking at the Foot of Lake Merritt

Tour

At the foot of Lake Merritt sits a series of major institutions and open spaces that are somewhat cut off from one another and from the surrounding city. A variety of changes are afoot, however, and they hold the promise of knitting these assets into an integrated civic and cultural district. Join us to discover the neighborhood’s hidden gems and then we’ll top it off at the Oakland Museum's Friday night festivities. Generously sponsored by Kaiser Permanente.
