About Jingletown

Once a bustling industrial zone populated by Portuguese cannery workers – who inspired the neighborhood's name with the "jingling" coins in their pockets – Jingletown has transformed into a thriving arts district since the 1980s. Reclaimed warehouses and factory buildings now house working artists and galleries, making it a cultural gem of Oakland. The area is adorned with mosaic murals, community art walls, and street paintings, adding to the immersive art experience for visitors.

The Jingletown Arts and Business Community works to promote the local arts scene and build public awareness around the creative and entrepreneurial energy flourishing in the district.

Don’t Miss It!

Whether you're an art lover, collector, or just curious, Jingletown Open Studios invites you to explore, connect, and celebrate the creative spirit of Oakland.
