OBSA is planning its second annual Halloween bash featuring a DJ and dancing, costume contest, snacks, 21+ open bar (valid ID required), photobooth and more. Free and open to all (must be a current student at The Claremont Colleges).
Join us for OBSA's annual welcome event for 5C undergraduate students! We'll have burgers and dogs on our brand new grill (vegan options available!), music and games on the patio, and socializing indoors and outdoors. Meet the OBSA staff in a relaxing atmosphere, learn about how to use the center and our plans for the fall. Bring a friend, free and open to all!
Ziona King is a visual artist working primarily in painting and drawing/illustration. Informed by her Christian faith, her practice explores theological themes of love, joy, and freedom as a means of inspiring transformation and imagination within broader cultural contexts. Drawing from African American genre painting and prophetic Christian art, she centers testimonial and contemplative imagery that create space for reflection, storytelling, and memory. Join us as we view and celebrate her work on display in the OBSA bungalow starting May 5 through May 17. Hors d'oeuvres and mocktails served!
Join OBSA and IDAS for our third conversation in the Centering Blackness series! This is a special crossover event for the OBSA Caribbean Film Festival.

Panelists: Randy Pierre, Professor Westenly Alcenat, Professor Sherrard-Johnson along with student co-facilitators.
