The West Oakland Mural Project is a pioneering initiative that features the first-ever permanent art piece and museum dedicated to honoring the Women of the Black Panther Party. The project includes a 2,000-square-foot mural and a 1,000-square-foot museum, both located in the heart of West Oakland, California, and showcases the significant contributions of Black Panther women and their community survival programs.
Conceived by local curator Jilchristina Vest, the West Oakland Mural Project aims to celebrate the legacy of the Black Panther Party as a collective of young humanitarians committed to uplifting poor and oppressed communities. Through artistic expression and educational programming, the project serves as a reminder of the impactful history and enduring spirit of this revolutionary movement.
