About the Host Spaces
About Home Bass
Home Bass is a community space in Oakland built by and for artists, dancers, and friends. Starting from a shared vision in the fall of 2024, Home Bass has evolved into a living room for the community, hosting dance classes, concerts, co-working, rehearsals, and parties. Together with our members, we’ve built a sprung dance floor by hand, hosted visiting artists from around the world, and created a weekly home for House and Hustle dancers who now have a consistent space to practice and grow together.
From the beginning, we've operated on a gift economy. We don't charge organizers rent, we don't sell tickets, and no one is ever turned away for lack of funds. Keeping our space accessible, especially for working artists, is deeply important to us. We've seen what’s possible when people can just show up and be themselves without worrying about cost, and our community has shown up in kind: members have contributed art for the walls, organized clean-up days, sourced materials and furniture, helped with construction projects, and stepped up to organize their own events. We feel honored and grateful for all the ways people show up in collaboration.

About Open Doors
Open Doors is a sandbox that started as a place for us to play and experiment with bringing ideas into form, evolving into a shared resource for others to do the same.
It’s also a quest to connect with & learn from community, to try to understand what makes it durable, and to act in alignment with those values.
We try to hold both room to stretch & room to rest to serve as an engine & container for heart offerings to invite a breadth of culture & leave the doors open.
