Pillars of N.o.F.

Community

From drawing parties to one of kind shows, workshops and festivals, NoF is on a mission to create unique events designed to enrich the artists that want to be a part of a community they can be proud of and support each other in.

Creativity

Los Angeles is full of artists, writers and performers of all kinds,. Our mission is to foster third spaces and events that provide a safe and supportive environment to express and explore your personal creativity away from the hustle!

Care

Fostering community through the arts only means so much if we don’t meet our patrons needs. We seek to build avenues for community members to support one another through mutual aid projects.

Craft

We seek to share skills that are often overlooked in traditonal education- sewing, using power-tools, cooking, gardening, etc. Artists have so many creative skills and we want to ensure they have survival skills too!

Our Mission

Fostering third spaces for people to build community through artistic engagement. With over two decades of experience in fine arts and live event production among our ranks, Nest of Friends aims to enable people who seek connection and support within the local community, both creatively and practically, with social aid, skill building and communal arts projects.
