The bold vision for the Fox Oakland theater is finally a reality. Now open, by day the theater will provide a permanent home for Oakland's distinctive, tuition-free charter school dedicated to artistic and academic excellence, Oakland School for the Arts.

At night, the theater will offer premier ground floor bars and restaurants that open out to a courtyard of trees, benches, and newly widened sidewalks. The theater itself will serve as the flagship live music venue for Another Planet Entertainment, well known for bringing outstanding live entertainment to the Greek Theater, Paramount Theater, and other popular Bay Area venues.

The Fox Theater Restoration Project began in January 2007 and the City of Oakland's team of over 600 fine artisans, contracters, engineers, architects, and developers have been hard at work masterfully restoring the theater. Want a insider view of the restoration effort? Check out the Fox Theater Restoration Project Team's website that details the monumental effort.

With your help, we can continue to restore and preserve the distinctive aesthetic elements of the theater that would not otherwise be included in the current reconstruction efforts, such as, historic paint treatments, replication of light fixtures, and other ornamentation including the stunning Guardians that flank the stage. Donor recognition opportunities include a personalized bronze plaque in the Fox's "Walkway of Stars" along Telegraph Avenue. Join the Friends of the Oakland Fox and other visionary donors who have supported this herculean effort.
