Everything you need to know about Coalesce.
mission & principles
Coalesce New Years is a gathering based on collective contribution, merged by creative forces. Our mission is to come together as a whole and create a vibrant display of music, art, and community in the Southern California desert.
Coalesce’s core values are:
Cooperation
We believe in working for the collective good of all people, rather than for personal gain. We support cooperation over competition.
Open Mindedness
We believe in being non-judgemental. Keep an open mind when you’re in the desert, and you’ll be surprised at what the Universe will reveal to you.
Artistic Expression
We believe in radical expression. Whether large or small, Coalesce is the perfect platform to share your creative endeavors and ideas.
Leave No Trace
We believe in respecting the environment and cleaning up after ourselves. When Coalesce is over, there should be no evidence that we were ever there.
Equality
We believe that we were all created equal, and that everyone has a part to contribute in making Coalesce what it is.
Self-Reliance
We believe in being independent and relying on our inner resources to survive. The desert environment can be harsh. Take care of yourselves.
Cultivate Respect
We believe in creating a community that respects and loves all living beings. Respect the land. Respect others. Respect yourself.
Evolution
We believe in the power and inevitability of change. No Coalesce is ever the same, but every Coalesce is created with intention and authenticity.
EXPERIENCE
MUSIC
We champion local underground artists in the electronic music realm by giving them a platform to play the music they truly love.
ART
Get lost in the plethora of beautiful, silly, and hand-crafted artworks displayed in our desert home.
community
There’s something about the experience of camping and coming together in the desert that cements a community in the universe.
