Our story continues

Common Unity is a nonprofit that builds community through art. We pay artists to collaborate, give them stages to show their work and the tools to earn a living from it, and stand behind them with wellness care and support for the families around them.

Featured future goal

Ingle Haus

A partner creative space in Inglewood for music recording, collaborative creation and podcast production. Opening it up to more artists is one of our main funding priorities.

Ingle Haus is a separate partner space. Common Unity Arts is the nonprofit: charitable gifts support our eligible programs there, artist access and community benefit, not the space’s general business costs.
