ñ connects with creatives to learn about their practice, utilizing intimate conversations to provide artists access to their communities and more.
Existing primarily as a production platform, ñ focuses on providing a spotlight on emerging artists and creative groups currently producing and building on their work. Not limited to any specific medium, ñ is open to conversations about art, design, music, and whatever fluid labels apply. At the heart of this production project is a foundation for community and collaboration. Our main goal is to help artists connect, communicate, and educate. ñ itself serves as a conduit between these individuals and their neighbors.
Santos Nuñez - founder and producer
A family man and DIY enthusiast, Santos holds a particular interest in the relationship between the arts and education. Since his days as a budding artist in the early aughts, he’s sought out collaborative opportunities with other creatives working within and adjacent to his practice. While earning his BA in Studio Art at CSU Dominguez Hills he joined the DH Arts Collective where he contributed to a platform that focuses on supplementing creativity and growing communities. That model continued to influence his take on communal sustainability within the arts. Santos indulges in a variety of hobbies including fabrication, photography, bicycling, and car building. He is currently pursuing his MFA at CSU San Bernardino and works as a High School liaison for Cerritos College.
