When Roman poet Horace penned his famous phrase, “Carpe diem quam minimum credula postero”, he meant it as a call to action, a declaration that tomorrow is unforeseen and that it is today which must be celebrated. Two thousand years later, lOAKal takes the phrase literally with our latest exhibition “Carpe Diem,” founded on the belief that if you put a varied group of artists in one room for a 24 hour period, you create an environment for transformation.

On Dec 1, 10 talented artists gathered at Loakal to seize the day (“Carpe Diem”). We gave each person an 8 ft x 8 ft panel and 24 hours and watched the magic happen! We invite you to our opening reception this Friday, coinciding with Oakland Art Murmur. We’ll provide booze and art by:
Zoltron
Helen Bayly
Eddie Colla
Daryll Peirce
D Young V
Filth Grime
Nite Owl
Hugh Leeman
Lisa Pisa

The opening reception for Carpe Diem will be held Friday December 7th from 6-10pm
