ASG Has Closed in West Oakland

It is with a heavy heart that we announce Aggregate Space Gallery is closing its location in West Oakland. Thank you to the wonderful community that helped us create a space (and a home) where artists could experiment, gather, and belong. To those visionaries, to our collaborators and advocates, and to our neighbors and friends: it has been the experience of a lifetime. Thank you all, again and again.

Our space transformed hundreds of times over the last decade guided by the brilliance of numerous artists, writers, and performers. We are so proud of what we accomplished together.

Our website will remain as an archive of the 76 installed exhibitions and countless lectures and performances we presented since late 2011. With some luck, we hope it will grow to include much more, including some additional documentation we collected along the way. We hope you will find time to look back, discover and remember, and be as amazed as we have been these last 10 years.

Continue to support the artists in your lives. Support the independent art spaces as they come and go. Show up for each other. Witness the future: the next new work. Keep those unexpected experiences in your heart. Remember that these passing moments will be surprising, filled with risk, defiance, and fun. We're sure of it, and we'll see you out there.

With gratitude and love,
Conrad and Willis by @aggregatespacegallery

Tonight! Join us from 6-9pm for the opening reception of “Khamsa”, a multimedia art exhibition showcasing 20 Black, Muslim, Immigrant, and Refugee visual artists and musicians traversing the five stages of grief.

“Khamsa” aims to address the different forms and contexts of grief, weaving both personal and universal experiences of loss. From the personal pain of losing a loved one, to the toll of Islamophobia and prejudice, Khamsa will draw in each and every one of us while bringing the stories and experiences of Black, Muslim, Immigrant, and Refugee artists to the forefront. This is a project to find harmony in our shared stories, bridging differences in cultures, beliefs, and history.

Tickets are sliding scale, and no one will be turned away due to lack of funds. Learn more using the link in our bio. 🎟

Tonight: September 2nd from 6 - 9 PM at Aggregate Space Gallery in Oakland for an evening of art and conversation. RSVP at artogether.org/khamsa

Join us on Friday, September 2, 2022 from 6 - 9 PM for the Opening Reception of “Khamsa” hosted by Aggregate Space Gallery.

Khamsa, the Arabic word for “five,” is a multimedia art exhibition showcasing twenty Black, Muslim, Immigrant, and Refugee visual artists and musicians traversing the five stages of grief. Khamsa will immerse participants within the heart and mind of the project through a musical and visual journey of the five stages of grief. The exhibition will be paired with a hip hop album release with music by the featured music artists.

Khamsa aims to address the different forms and contexts of grief, weaving both personal and universal experiences of loss. From the personal pain of losing a loved one, to the toll of Islamophobia and prejudice, Khamsa will draw in each and every one of us while bringing the stories and experiences of Black, Muslim, Immigrant, and Refugee artists to the forefront. Khamsa is a project to find harmony in our shared stories, bridging differences in cultures, beliefs, and history.

This project is a collaboration between Guled Muse, GAMA: Gathering All Muslim Artists, and ARTogether, and is made possible with support from Doris Duke Foundation for Islamic Art’s Building Bridges Program.

Opening Reception: Sep 2, 2022, 6-9PM

Exhibition Dates: Sep 2 - Oct 15, 2022 Visit website for more events.
