Negus in Nature empowers Black communities by fostering connections to the outdoors through travel and exploration across the country. The images shown here are from an indoor climbing event at Ironworks in Berkeley, just outside San Francisco.

NIN recognizes that systemic barriers and social inequities have historically limited access to outdoor spaces for Black and Brown communities. The organization works to break down these obstacles by building community and offering safe, inclusive nature experiences that integrate S.T.E.A.M. education.
