Welcome to the Nexus Nanaimo Initiatives 

"A Unique and Creative Journey into the Fine Art of Giving Back"

Mission Statement - The Gathering Storm

Our fragile planet is entering a difficult and precarious phase in the so-called 'Anthropocene' era. All indicators are pointing to a structural failure and collapse of the modern, advanced, industrial, technological - and lethally overpopulated - human system. It's not necessary to go into any detail here...just watch the six-o'clock news or listen to a couple weather reports.

A small group of artists, musicians, poets, volunteers and activists from Nanaimo, British Columbia, Canada have come together and founded the Nexus Nanaimo Initiatives, a volunteer-run, not-for-profit collective whose primary mission is to respond to the ever-deepening crisis - the gathering storm - that is unfolding around us daily. Through the mediums of fine art, music, writing, humour and the spoken word, the Nexus team will endeavour to help alleviate human suffering - initially on a local and regional basis - for our most vulnerable citizens, i.e., those dealing with chronic homelessness, poverty, mental health and drug addiction issues.

With no sign of the crisis abating, members of our core team are currently laying the ground-work for a proactive, compassionate and 'long term' campaign to fulfill its intended mission.

 So, enjoy the ride and oh, don't forget to fasten your seatbelts.
