The month of November celebrates the family spirit and we’re taking the opportunity to acknowledge the significant value of familia at our weekly Community Marketplace. We celebrated our incredible vendors on the morning of Sunday, November 24th, making for a very special occasion. A big thanks to the OC students and faculty and OC Foundation board and volunteers to assembling and delivering breakast boxes for each of the 125 vendors.
The Community Marketplace is held every Sunday at Oxnard College, with vendors connecting with the community to sell household items, fashion accessories, clothing, toys, produce, sweets, snacks, and much more. Our Food Court features tasty meals for families to enjoy, serving our community from 8am – 3pm. Monthly events include Swap Meet Justice and special celebrations.
The Community Marketplace plays a pivotal role, generating a remarkable $500,000 for the OC Foundation, which is vital in funding scholarships and supporting campus programs that empower our students towards success. But it’s so much more than just a financial lifeline; it’s a vibrant family gathering that embodies the heart and soul of our community. You can feel the lively spirit as children laugh and play, families share delicious meals, and friends mingle, creating an atmosphere of warmth and inclusivity.
