Alice Street Film Screening

Two artists form an unlikely partnership to paint their most ambitious mural to date in Downtown Oakland. Featuring portraits of esteemed local artists and community leaders, it encapsulates in glorious color the area’s history and becomes a point of neighborhood pride. As the mural paint dries, a luxury condo tower threatens to obstruct it. The community rallies in song and dance to protect their beloved monument. At a time when society has never seemed more divided, Alice Street illustrates the ways the arts can move people, not just emotionally, but to action.
