Over the last four years, what started as a small group show has grown into homegrown, multidisciplinary showcase unlike any other.
Hosted by arts and culture journal Wine & Bowties, Feels is built to provide a transcendent art and music experience that prioritizes community, accessibility and representation. Oakland, and the greater Bay Area, has a long history of radical ideas. In an era of over-saturation, we curate with purpose and build on that tradition, celebrating visionary creators and community voices. If you have something important to say, ask us about fitting into Feels.
Our gallery exhibition features one-off experiences built out by artists, visual art galleries and print presses working across all disciplines — from paint and photography, to zines and clothing, to themed installations and digital art. Ask us about our most direct partnership opportunity and team up with our artists directly.
