Celebrating Our Past, Inspiring Our Future
Art, history, and community came together in a vibrant celebration of Oakland Chinatown's cultural heritage on October 17, 2026. The Shoong Family Chinese Cultural Center, in partnership with the Oakland Chinatown Chamber of Commerce (OCCC), proudly unveiled Four Values, Enduring Legacy, a new public mural on our historic building. Created by local Chinese American artist Sorell Raino-Tsui, the mural was the culmination of a yearlong community arts initiative bringing together students, artists, and elders through creativity and intergenerational collaboration. Made possible through generous contributions and major funding support from Kaiser Permanente, the California Arts Council Impact Grant, and OCCC, the project transformed our Center's rich history into a meaningful work of public art, celebrating the people, traditions, and shared cultural identity of Oakland Chinatown.
The mural honors our four founding values—禮 (Respect), 義 (Righteousness), 廉 (Integrity), and 恥 (Humility)—and the generations who have sustained our Center since 1953. Featuring portraits of our founder Joe Shoong and his family, alongside historic scenes of Chinese opera and community celebrations, the artwork tells the story of a community that came together to build a place of its own for education, cultural preservation, and belonging. We were delighted to celebrate this milestone with our students, families, alumni, artists, and community leaders. More than a tribute to our past, the mural brings the cultural life within our walls out into the streets of Oakland Chinatown, creating a lasting expression of community pride, artistic creativity, and our commitment to future generations.SFCCC provides comprehensive Chinese language education in both Mandarin and Cantonese. Whether your child is aiming for fluency or just starting out, we have a curriculum designed for every level (K - 9th Grade). We offer beginner courses for those new to the language as well as advanced AP-level Chinese classes for junior high students.

Working Together for a Safe and Strong Oakland Chinatown
The safety and well-being of our students, families, and community are among our highest priorities. This October, we were pleased to welcome Oakland Police Chief James Beere to the Shoong Family Chinese Cultural Center for a productive meeting about public safety in Oakland Chinatown. Our conversation focused on protecting students traveling to and from our Center, preventing crimes targeting Asian American and Pacific Islander residents and elders, strengthening police presence during evening hours, and ensuring safety at major community events. We sincerely appreciate Chief Beere taking the time to meet with us personally and his commitment to working closely with our community.
Our partnership with the Oakland Police Department dates back to our founding in 1953. Today, we continue to work closely with OPD to provide a safe, welcoming environment for the more than 800 students who use our Center each week, including through annual safety workshops for students and teachers. We are grateful for the excellent work and dedication of OPD officers and renew our pledge to support the department and advocate for the resources it needs to continue serving our community effectively. It is through this kind of close cooperation, open communication, and shared commitment that we can build a safer, stronger Oakland Chinatown.
