What We Do
COMMUNITY EVENTSFrom open mics to art festivals, we reimagine suburban spaces to be in community with one another and express ourselves through the arts.
ARTIST NETWORKWe work on a hyperlocal level, cultivating our environments to be more inclusive, colorful, and interconnected. We believe that community-building means starting with our neighbors here at home.
Where We Work
We are based in Whittier with connections across our neighboring so-called “Gateway Cities” of Santa Fe Springs, Pico Rivera, La Mirada, and Norwalk.
While, we prioritize hyperlocal events, we see ourselves as part of the larger fabric of the arts & cultural scenes of Southern California, from L.A. to O.C. and the I.E.
We are always open to new members, projects, and partners. Drop us a line to connect or join our next virtual meeting (562arts@gmail.com).
