Our Sanctuary – This is a beautiful, sacred space, and seats 250 people. Perfect for weddings or memorials, we have also hosted concerts, panels and forums, and other types of events. A/V is available (additional cost for AV – sound tech).
Our Social Hall – Measuring approximately 40 by 50 feet, our social hall is a great multi-purpose open space with recently refinished hardwood floor and a high ceiling. Capacity is 200 for a reception (no chairs), 150 theatre seating, and 100 for sit-down dinner set-up. This is our most versatile space, and our most popular rental.
Our Parking – Our main parking lot consists of 108 parking spaces, five of which are designated handicapped. There is additional street parking on Clarewood Drive both up and downhill from the Center for about as far as one would care to walk.
Our Kitchen – We have a full commercial kitchen that we use weekly for an after-service meal.

“Much love and respect to your Facility coordinator and on-site staff during our event. All of those who supported us were just a delight to work with and super comforting throughout the process leading up to our event. The attention to detail was greatly appreciated. The Oakland Center for Spiritual Living is just the perfect place to have an event and we are so pleased we found you. We plan on doing it again next year!”
