Programs

What happens at NCO beyond the coffee. Discussions, workshops, reading circles, and cultural gatherings — all rooted in conversation and shared learning.

Our Programs

Each program is built around the idea that coffee spaces can be places of genuine learning and exchange.

Discussion Series

Senada — Seri Nalar dan Aksara

A monthly open discussion forum held at NCO Café. Each session brings together people from different backgrounds to explore topics around culture, language, literature, and society. No registration fee — just bring your curiosity.

Discussions

Public Discussion

Regular, informal discussions on culture, language, and everyday life. These sessions are open to anyone who wants to listen, share, or simply be part of the conversation.

Workshops

Workshops & Hands-on Learning

From writing and language to craft and creative skills, NCO hosts workshops led by practitioners and community members. Small groups, real skills, shared knowledge.

Reading

Reading Circles

Collaborative reading sessions where participants explore texts together — fiction, essays, poetry, or academic writing. A space to read slowly and think out loud.

Culture

Cultural Gatherings

Exhibitions, screenings, performances, and cultural events that bring the space alive. NCO opens its doors to artists, organizers, and communities who want to share their work.

Collaboration

Community Collaborations

Joint programs with artists, writers, researchers, educators, and cultural organizers. If you have an idea that aligns with what we do, we would love to hear from you.
