Temporary Center Closure Due to 2021 Fire
The Junior Center of Art and Science remains ever resilient, a testament to its 67 year history. Even during a pandemic, until our recent fire, we have been situated on the shore of Lake Merritt between the Nature Center and the Sailboat House, overlooking the Bird Sanctuary.
During the soon to be initiated building rehabilitation process (to be completed June 2022) and until our return to the site, we are operating remotely and in school and nonprofit partner sites. One such current location is at 555 19th Street, Suite 131, Downtown Oakland. Register as usual via the various website links and other location details will be provided!
We hope you all take good care.
In community,
The Junior Center Team
