Sandwiched between the 880 freeway and the Oakland Estuary lies a diverse neighborhood with a storied past known as Jingletown Junction. Once a gritty industrial zone that bustled with the activity of canneries, the area is now a rough-hewn gem of light manufacturing, small businesses, residential and working artist studios.
For years this migratory landscape has provided the inspiration and, quite literally, the canvas for a wide variety of art, from photography, painting, drawing, printing, ceramics woodworking, metal works, sculpture, furniture and mosaics that adorn a number of local buildings. Now, in homage to a neighborhood that inspires art and the art that inspires a neighborhood, over 35 artists open their studios to the public for the 2010 Jingletown Holiday Art Walk. Enjoy a casual walk throughout the neighborhood while you visit each studio and discover the talent that lies within the community along the Oakland Estuary. Donʼt forget to check out Jingletownʼs newest neighborhood project currently underway “The Peterson Street Art Wall and Garden”.
