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 live performances by inviting audiences to become active participants in the experience.
This debut performance of “Dream,” live from Temple Sinai New Orleans, welcomes an audience of over 500 to connect, reflect, and relate 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 variety show designed specifically for residents of assisted living homes, their families, and staffs at each facility.
This participatory production will bring student musicians, dancers, and comedians into assisted living homes throughout Orleans, Jefferson, and the River Parishes of Louisiana, to facilitate interactive performances with audiences, which include singing, playing instruments, dancing, laughing out loud together, and more.
Stay tuned for more info!
