Our Vision
To love our neighbors as we would wish to be loved.
Our Mission
Pico Union Project is a vibrant cultural center that builds community health, resilience, and neighborhood revitalization in the Pico-Union area of Los Angeles. We strive to be a source of light and equity for all, providing the community with access to fresh nutritious food, healthcare services, creativity classes, and opportunities for meaningful paid work.
Happening @ PUP
Body Church: LOS ANGELES!
Join BODY CHURCH for its first official in-person event in Los Angeles! Enjoy an entire day dedicated to movement, storytelling, and full-spectrum awareness of our shared humanity.
ZULAN
ZULAN is an international DJ, producer, and cross-discipline creative. Her genre-fluid music is a magnet pulling people from different cultures, tastes, and worlds, into one shared, trusting experience.
Vida Sana
Every Friday, we distribute free produce that would otherwise be discarded, among many other goods and services, to members of the Pico Union and greater Los Angeles communities. Come join us as we share food, work in the garden, and make our neighbor better and brighter!

Pico Union Project Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Statement
The Pico Union Project is dedicated to providing a welcoming and caring community that is diverse, equitable, and inclusive. We are proud of our commitment to inclusion and diversity and strive to foster a safe, welcoming, and just space that meets the needs and celebrates all members of the community.
We strive to ensure each member is seen and accepted, regardless of skin color, ethnicity, sexual orientation, gender identity, ability, family make-up, political affiliation or life stage.
We hold ourselves accountable for upholding practices that are equitable and just, and expect our leadership, volunteers, employees, and guests to be welcoming and supportive of all diversity. We recognize that this practice is evolving and will require ongoing reflection and adaptation.
