Cog & Code Gallery

Cog & Code Gallery (often referred to simply as, The Gallery) is a larger district located in the north eastern sector of the city at the intersection of the Minutes Express Rail and the Minutes Circle Rail and bordered on the north by the Gearspire Borough primary divide and on the east by the NanoCity Metro primary divide.   As a Minutes district, The Gallery sees a stronger separation in aesthetics, favoring the heavy industry Victorian Steam aesthetic of the neighboring Gearspire Borough as well as the sleek and modern aesthetic of the neighboring NanoCity Metro.   The Gallery acts as the city's main artistic hub from its eponymous gallery to the city's most famous performance venus.

Guilds and Factions

The Artisans' Stage Guild

The Artisans' Stage Guild represents the various performers of Nexus and works to ensure that all performers are treated fairly across the city. Open to anyone, the guild has wide reach across the city under a wide variety of performers. It's viewed by most as the easiest way for those interested in taking up performance arts to secure a network of peers.  

The Wandering Performing Arts Academy

Unlike the Mystech Learning Center, The Wandering Performing Arts Academy (WPAA) lacks an established campus, preferring to teach classes wherever they can find the space across the city. Still, the faculty maintain a small office for applicants and paperwork within the CCG.  

Neo-Expressionist Circle

A community of painters, sculptors, and multimedia artists who embrace bold colors, abstract forms, and experimental techniques. They host regular exhibitions and workshops, pushing the boundaries of traditional art and exploring new modes of expression in the digital age.
