Friday Nights at OMCA with The Whoadees

Submitted by the Event Organizer

July’s final addition to Friday Nights at OMCA brings The Whoadees to the Garden stage! Self-described as “a gumbo of styles and sounds from around the globe including roots sounds of world music, Hip Hop, funk, and jazz,” the Whoadees stay true to their Bay Area roots by bringing a fusion of multiple genres to the mix inspiring you to dance or simply close your eyes and be filled with soulful sounds.

Guests inspired by the deeply creative performance can expect to have a great outlet for expressing themselves. OMCA invites guests to express their creativity and unique perspective in the OMCA galleries with Sketchboard Live Figure Drawing.

Sketching in the gallery is included with the price of general Museum Gallery access and free for Museum Members. All this creative engagement will be framed by an exceptional DJ set from Mani Draper featuring Rap, R&B, House, Afrobeat, and Soul sounds.

Limited $10 flat rate parking for Friday Nights is available in the OMCA Garage until 10 pm. Learn more about getting to the museum.
