On February 27, 2026, Oscar Grant III would have turned 40. Join us in honoring his life at Happy Heavenly Birthday, Oscar. An exhibition that honors the lives of Black and Brown people lost to police violence by returning to what is most human: the act of celebration. Through voice, image, and shared ritual, the project creates space to speak names, tell stories, and mark birthdays that continue even after loss. 

This installation is part of 1-800 Happy Birthday, a project by filmmaker and artist Mohammad Gorjestani.
