 The Nest Artists was formed in 2020 by student artists who wished to create an inclusive space for students to gather, create, share, and express themselves in a variety of creative media.

 The Nest Artists promote and organize art-centered events and invite others to create in various forms. These include traditional visual works such as drawing, painting, and digital art as well as knitting, crocheting, quilting, zines, writing, performances, and audiovisual works such as original music or short films. The Nest Artists welcome anyone, regardless of experience.

+The Nest Artists held its first staple event, the TrinGala exhibition showcase, on April 8, 2022. "A combination of the Met Gala and an art show," students submitted works for a chance to win a cash prize, dressed in formalwear based on the theme, and walked the red carpet. The first TrinGala was themed after Gustav Klimt’s painting //The Kiss// and was hosted in the [[chapel|Chapel]], which was transformed for the event with catered food, student art, and floral decorations. In 2023, TrinGala was reprised, with Monet's //Waterlilies// as its theme.
