EVENTS

Enjoy an original Destiny Arts Center youth-generated production written, choreographed, and performed by the Destiny Arts Youth Performance Company, Destiny Junior Company, the Elders Project, and guest artists.

“GAME OVER“, the American Gameshow, is a live, satirical spectacle where contestants compete in outrageous rounds that parody the systems running this country — racism, capitalism, politics, beauty standards, gender roles, and more.

What begins as entertainment turns into exposure revealing how America turns injustice into a spectacle and profits from people’s pain. In the final act, the contestants stop playing, dismantle the system, and rewrite what it means to “win,” reclaiming their voices, their power, their stories, and needs as a community.

Location:
Valley Center for Performing Arts
3500 Mountain Blvd, Oakland, CA 94602

Make an impact on the lives of over 5,500 young people in Oakland and throughout the Bay Area by becoming a sponsor of Powering Dreams: The Destiny Gala. This event supports the transformative work of Destiny Arts Center, which inspires and ignites social change through the arts.

Founded nearly forty years ago, Destiny’s programs have grown to include over fifty school and community sites offering professionally taught dance, martial arts, and theater classes free to participants and a North Oakland center with pay-what-you-can movement classes afterschool and in summer camp.

In every Destiny class, young people learn to express themselves, overcome challenges, and build a more inclusive and compassionate world.
