The Nest is a nonprofit worker cooperative music venue located in West Lafayette, Indiana. We provide a space for our local scene to thrive as well as for both Purdue students and Lafayette-area locals to participate in a vibrant, in-person community. We started in 2023 as a pair of Purdue students running DIY shows out of our basement, but we've since grown into an entertainment cooperative with 20 staff members opening our own all-ages brick and mortar music venue!
