Eco Framing

Address: 755 Apple St, Oakland, CA 94603, USA

Museum Store

“Working with Eco Framing was my first experience getting something professionally framed, and Eric’s expertise and guidance was so helpful. Knowing the look I wanted to go for (something clean and timeless), Eric pulled out an array of frame and matte options for me to lay against my print. Once I had narrowed down my preferences, and understanding that I was budget-conscious, Eric worked with me to find the materials in the look I liked that worked within my budget. I am tremendously happy with the finished product and can’t recommend Eco Framing enough.”

Rotary Nature Center

Address: 600 Bellevue Ave, Oakland, CA 94610, USA

Local government office Museum

“The Rotary Nature Center is an awesome place to take little kids. It's small and a little rough around the edges, but kids could care less. There's a live snake and tarantula. They also have bees and others stuffed creatures. They also have different nature programs, some restricted to those 18+, and volunteer opportunities. The best place to watch the birds in the nature preserve is right next door. The center sells bird food for a dollar.”

Black Panther Women Mini Museum

“I wish I could give ten stars! Jill is incredible. The museum is incredible and so is the mural. To be on the streets of Oakland where the party worked was so meaningful to me. I so appreciate Jill sharing her knowledge and collection. She was absolutely lovely and my soul feels rejuvenated. This made my trip to the Bay Area! Thank you, Jill!”

“We had gone for a Senior Student Exhibition, and it was amazing. I loved the care taken in displaying the artwork. Beautiful. I love the campus, of course, and the creative and inclusive vibes.”

Work of Art Services Inc

Address: 2020 Dennison St #11, Oakland, CA 94606, USA

Art gallery Museum Storage

“I recently purchased a new home and used Work of Art Service, Inc. to hang 4 pieces of art in my collection that were particularly difficult to hang: one was over a tall, narrow stairwell that also housed a stair lift, two were on walls that are mirrored, and the fourth was on a cement wall located behind a fireplace. The folks from Works of Art Service arrived on site, developed a game plan to hang each of these pieces, executed their game plans, and left behind a very pleased customer. They were professional, courteous, resourceful, creative and efficient and, most importantly, successful in hanging all four pieces. I recommend this company highly. Tom J.”

DUNSMUIR HELLMAN HISTORIC ESTATE

Address: 2960 Peralta Oaks Ct, Oakland, CA 94605, USA

Museum

“Gorgeous historic home and grounds open for tours. The house was built by Alexander Dunsmuir for his bride in 1899. The house was decorated beautifully for the holiday season and also had lots of holiday photo opportunities outside for children, as well as two bouncy houses. There was a high tea event available, tickets available online and had sold out by our arrival. Friendly and helpful staff were plentiful. Parking was $15. Disability Information: Disabled parking available on request, with drop off and shuttle available to the house. The lovely walk through the grounds is on a paved but slightly bumpy narrow road that gently ascends to the house, which sits on a small rise. The road is perhaps 1/8th mile long. There is a ramp to the back door, but tours enter through the front and people are carefully routed in one direction only. Some stair climbing is necessary to see the house; I did not see any elevator or disabled access to the second floor. The restrooms are nearby in another building, but require either ascending a fairly long stair up the hill or using the slightly steep ramp walkway tucked around the back. Printed information throughout the house offered no Braille. The movement of foot traffic through the house moved at a fairly good pace, but if one wishes to move at a more leisurely pace most of the time there is room to allow others to pass. A lovely place to visit and we all very much enjoyed it!”

Oakland Museum of California

Address: 1000 Oak St, Oakland, CA 94607, USA

Museum

“I was here for a community event, which, and this is a great thing, overlapped with at least two other community events. First, getting to the museum is incredibly easy. There's a BART station a block away, and a large, multi-level parking garage within. For a Friday night event, I paid $7 cash to park from 5:30 - 8:30pm. That is amazingly affordable. Once I arrived and parked, I walked toward my main event in a large auditorium. However, on the way, there was an Off the Grid food truck smorgasbord, a small community-based craft and gift sales, and live music. Since I was early, I got to enjoy those fun things of which I was completely unaware. The auditorium's event space was very nice. Quality sound system, comfortable seating, and good lighting. The event went smoothly with prompt support from museum staff as needed. After the event ended, the security staff let us know 10 minutes were left before the museum closed for the night -- I wandered by a couple families going into a rain forest exhibit right at the announcement, and I checked it out briefly. What a great place for kids and community! Would definitely go back for more events, especially if they have music and food trucks.”
