Get ready, everyone! OCSAFEST is back for the third consecutive year. The student-run music and arts festival will be bigger, bolder and more community-centered than ever.
Hosted by Orange County School of the Art’s (OCSA) Arts & Enterprise Conservatory, OCSAFEST is a two-day, immersive festival experience that shines a spotlight on the talent and creativity of OCSA students, alumni, and local artists.
From live performances to an artisan market, a classic car show to interactive art installations, this free event welcomes everyone to join the fun at the Callero Family Foundation Plaza on the OCSA campus.
The festival will kick off on Friday, May 30 with student performances, fun games and activities, delicious eats from local food trucks, and the return of the “Breezy Bazaar”—our signature artisan market featuring handcrafted goods by OCSA students and local vendors.
The festivities continue on Saturday, May 31 with community group performances, food trucks, art activities, and the highly anticipated Classic Car Show!
Rev up your engines for the first-ever OCSAFEST Classic Car Show, showcasing an incredible lineup of community-owned, pre-1976 vehicles. It's a visual treat for car lovers and casual fans alike. You won’t want to miss the student-designed trophies presented by none other than Paul Frank, creator of the beloved character Julius the monkey.
OCSAFEST will bring 180 OCSA students from various conservatories across campus together to participate in this huge event, with many of them giving amazing live performances. There will be various opportunities to create at various craft tables, including jewelry making, custom buttons, bandanas, flower bookmarks, and more!
This year, the Arts & Enterprise is thrilled to welcome Jason Keam, a Long Beach-based multi-disciplinary painter and celebrated community builder, for the first time. Keam is known for his vibrant style inspired by skate culture and American animation.
His artistic vision champions unity through diversity, best captured by his recent TEDTalk residency sculpture, “We Rise by Lifting Others.” At OCSAFEST, guests will be able to engage with Keam’s work firsthand in a unique installation that embodies compassion, community, and creativity.
Whether you're a longtime supporter of OCSA and the arts, a fan of classic cars, or just looking for an exciting way to kick off summer, OCSAFEST 2025 promises unforgettable moments and meaningful community connection. The event is also free and no reservation is required to attend. Come celebrate with us on Friday, May 30 from 2:30 - 6 p.m. and Saturday, May 31 from 1 - 5 p.m.!
