Testimonials
Beni, Visual Artist
Oakland, CA
"Each time I exhibited with MUSA was killer, I made hundreds of dollars, connected with an amazing community and couldn't be more thankful for the opportunities"
Beni specializes in abstract expressionist paintings and murals and works on her fashion design brand.
Felipe, Art Lover
Berkeley, CA
"MUSA events are not only a great place to discover local artists and buy affordable high-quality pieces, but also extremely fun and a way to get to know people from all around the bay! "
Felipe VL, MUSA community member.
Callie, Exhibition Host
Oakland, CA
"We do art pop ups where artists come and exhibit their work and sell it along performing live music. We chose to do this weekly on Sundays because they are typically slow for us. After a couple of weeks we have definitely seen attendance pick up. Artists promote the shows and customers that come for the art shows are now recurring customers"
Callie Waldman, Event Planner at Hofkuche in Oakland, California.
