Art and Soul brings downtown Oakland to life
Downtown Oakland comes alive every year with the annual Art and Soul Festival, now in its 16th year, which brings thousands of revelers to the streets around City Hall, for music, dancing, gospel, food and all manner of family fun.
There are five stages of entertainment, showcasing everything from local music acts to circus performers.
On Sunday, Aug. 21, visitors can stroll through a classic car show while catching performances by main stage performers like John Santos, Chante Moore and Tony Toni Tone.
