About me:

OAKLANDISH offers apparel and other merchandise that celebrates "local love & original Oakland charm". Proceeds from sales go to:
1. Support a unique Summer calendar of free events in Oakland.
2. Promote the "Oakland Innovators Award", which offers financial rewards to outstanding community groups.
3. Produce a series of multi-media projects that illuminate local history, such as our annual zine publication and informative web content.

Since 2000 Oaklandish has taken the form of: downtown digital slide-shows of local legends, wheat-paste posters of folk heroes in and around Oakland, the Liberation Drive-in free pirate movie theater, an award-winnign line of clothing, a new webstore, and the now closed Oaklandish Gallery.
