With its towering high rises and bustling streets, rejuvenated Downtown Oakland has the feel of a big urban center set off from a small town – it even plays host to BART’s headquarters! But there’s much more to Downtown Oakland than office buildings and skyscrapers. Here, you can indulge in flavors from around the world, take in some of the city’s best street art, and even stroll through history by visiting one of the many 19th-century homes tucked into the neighborhood.
Guitarist, singer, songwriter and four-time Grammy winner, Keb' Mo' is coming to SFJAZZ and we want to send you and a guest to experience it! Enter to win two tickets to see this iconic artist on Friday, April 22 at 7:30pm.
When Phoebe Cheng was little, she loved stories. She found that reading and storytelling could transport her to far away places, help her stand in someone else’s shoes, and shed light on why things are the way they are.
In school, Cheng discovered new passions – this time for math, physics, and computers. These three subjects, she found, could solve even the most inscrutable puzzles. And engineering combined all three of them.
All riders need Clipper to pay for BART fare. We are encouraging riders to put a Clipper card on their mobile phones instead of obtaining plastic Clipper cards because global supply chain issues have depleted the inventory of plastic cards.
For limited time only, Clipper customers can set up a new Clipper card on their phones for free (normally $3). This free Clipper card promotion does not include new plastic cards and will be automatically applied for all new cards that are added to mobile devices (iOS or Android).
