We are an active community of atheists in the greater Los Angeles area.

Our core mission involves:

  • Promoting separation of government and religion.
  • Educating the public about our philosophy and practices.
  • Serving the public good in ways that are exemplary of our values.

We have monthly meetings on the 4th Sunday of each month in the Hollywood area. We get together for informative lectures, to celebrate the seasonal equinoxes and solstices, to watch secular movies, play fun games and more. A complimentary lunch is always served after the general meetings and children are welcome.

We also sponsor special events throughout the month and our affiliate organizations have events all over the Los Angeles area.

Join our community today and get together with us to discuss beliefs and philosophies, deepen your freethought heritage and make new friends.
