Splash Pad Park, Oakland
Open year-round, rain or shine!
Come for the amazing vendors, stay for the gorgeous location! The Grand Lake Farmers Market is situated in Splash Pad Park, a beautiful outdoor gathering spot designed by Oakland’s own Walter Hood. A bevy of vendors serves up everything you need—organic produce, flowers, coffee, pastries, and prepared goods like dim sum—so you can fill up your tote and enjoy a grassy picnic among the palm trees, native gardens, and fountain.
Vibrant, communal, and bustling, Grand Lake Farmers Market has a dynamic, welcoming vibe with people from all walks of life. Visit via AC Transit, or find plenty of parking for both cars and bikes.

The Bridge Yard
Join an experiment where dozens or hundreds of us gather in person to sing our hearts out.
Led by a conspiracy of choirs and songleader luminaries, we’ll sing songs we know or can super quickly pick up.
Pop anthems, gospel, improv, medicine songs, community classics -- all with themes we hope will leave us spirit-nourished and uplifted.
