Welcome to
NO FEAR
New Orleans Foundation for Experiential Arts Renewal [NO FEAR] is an arts education nonprofit dedicated to Experiential Arts and Learning, being an integrative approach to artmaking that places meaning and purpose at the heart of arts experiences.
“Let’s dream
together…”
Check out NO FEAR’s mission in action through our recent partnership with There Is Always Hope Foundation, a Louisiana-based nonprofit that utilizes music to advocate for mental health awareness and suicide prevention support.
With NO FEAR teaching artists meeting with students over the course of three months, “Dream” emerged. This original composition reimagines Dr. MLK Jr.’s “I Have A Dream” speech through song and breaks the illusive “fourth wall” of arts experiences by inviting audiences to become active participants in the experience.
This debut performance from Temple Sinai New Orleans, welcomes an audience of over 500 to connect, reflect, and relate to one another through participatory and communal artmaking, being hallmarks of Experiential Arts and Learning.
Throughout the month of December, NO FEAR in partnership with There Is Always Hope Foundation and the New Orleans School of Comedy Arts, will present the first annual Homes for the Holidays Revue, an interactive and participatory variety show, designed for residents of assisted living homes who could use some extra cheer during the holiday season.
This initiative will bring student musicians, dancers, and comedians into assisted living homes throughout Orleans, Jefferson, and the River Parishes of Louisiana, to perform with residents and staffs of each facility, with young and old alike singing, playing instruments, dancing, and laughing out loud together.
