berkeley public library
MOCHA returns to the library, beginning Fall 2026 to offer FREE weekly art workshops at three Berekeley Public Library branches. Join MOCHA Teaching Artists in these workshops for children and families. Each week the Teaching Artist will present art related to a different theme, building creativity, socio-emotional, and academic skills through painting, drawing, sculpting, and numerous other art forms.
