Learn more about Artist Alliance here.

Inspired by our current exhibition MORE DISRUPTION: REPRESENTATIONAL ART IN FLUX we’ve invited musicians who thrive in the improvisational and experimental space, much like our artists in the exhibition. These artists and performers find new ways to interpret and re-discover traditional ways of art making.   Enjoy music by Montalban Quintet and Nicey Nice featuring Marcelo Radulovich, food from Beach Eats Food Truck, and connect with exhibiting artists from our "More Disruption: Representation Art in Flux" exhibition, Miguel Camacho-Padilla & David Fobes.

Inspired by our current exhibition TRANSFORMATIVE CURRENTS   We turn our focus to our muse, the Pacific Ocean with two Oceanside born and raised acts to close out the season. Singer-songwriter Lea Love’s  multi-layered artistry draws from her rich Hawaiian, Japanese, and Samoan heritage. We the Comma’s brings their unique experience and perspective as “beach boy surfers” with a  personal mission to break down racial and social constructs.   Enjoy music by We the Commas and Lea Love, food from Da Good Vibes Food Truck, and connect with Transformative Currents curators, Cassandra Coblentz & Aaron Katzeman.

Join us for an evening of art and drinks as we celebrate the opening of our newest exhibitions: Transformative Currents, TBD. Discover and connect with fellow artists, dedicated curators, and a vibrant community as you explore the art and stories of Southern California artists in three new exhibitions at OMA.   Members free, Visitors $15

Off The Wall is a conversation series that brings community leaders together with artists and curators to discuss current affairs which impact the health and well being of our region now and in the future. Artists often exist at the forefront of societal change, reflecting the mood of the current moment and trends, innovating towards change, and bringing challenging concepts to light. In this series, we look at the role the museum has in bringing art and community together to be champions of culture. Part moderated conversation, part audience participation, we take the art off the walls and into our everyday lives.
