As the leading provider of cultural arts performances and educational activities in Alameda, RCW aspires to build an engaging community-based arts organization that features programming relevant to the local population. Rhythmix presents a range of family-friendly events that feature artists representing a mix of contemporary and traditional arts disciplines from around the world. Performances include a range of music genres (jazz, blues, world music, and classical), dance, comedy, family programming, and free community events. The K Gallery at Rhythmix presents six visual art exhibitions annually, along with a weekly Art Jam, where local artists create in a shared studio environment.
Since 2012, the Rhythmix Performance, Art & Learning program has served over 100,000 students throughout Alameda County with FREE arts education assemblies highlighting world music and dance traditions. Rhythmix also serves families and youth through community-based programming including its 'Round the World Festival and biennial Island City Waterways project celebrating Alameda’s past and present cultural history.
