Coffee Talks 

Led by The Nest staff, join us for coffee and topical, open discussions.

Beading Circles 

We offer bi-weekly beading circles for student to learn various techniques of beading. The space encourages students to learn more about Native American art and build community. 

Community Presentations

Throughout the quarter, The Nest hosts community presentations that allow students to share more about the unique communities and backgrounds they come from, as well as research and interests they have undertaken at UC Davis.

After Hours @ The Nest

Come and join us for After Hours at The Nest, hosted Tuesdays from 6:00 to 8:00pm at The Nest (University House)! After Hours is a new program The Nest is piloting this year that creates space and community to get your work and readings done at the center once it’s closed for the day. Graduate students and undergraduates are encouraged to come out, and we hope to see you at the center for After Hours soon!

Chill and Chat

Please join us every other Friday (starting Week 2 of each quarter) from 1:00pm-3:00pm in the Conference Room at The Nest (University House) for Chill and Chat! Chill and Chat is a space to be a part of community and talk with peers every other week, hosted by CAN Counselor Cresencia Cruz!
