Finding A Sense of Time

There is something about Nosara that changes your sense of time. Days are measured less by the clock and more by the tides, the light, the rain, and the setting sun. That same rhythm has inspired a growing community of artists who find their creative energy in the landscape, culture, and wild beauty of this special place.

Discover the work of Jade Nosara’s artist in residence at Jade Angel Lara. Keep an eye out for Angel Lara’s art throughout Nosara— the skate park, on the main Calle near Rosie’s (a giant rose), GONA Gallery and the gardens of Jade Nosara. His work has become part of the visual landscape of Nosara, inviting you to discover art in unexpected places.

Art in Nosara isn't just something to see. It's another way to experience this place—to slow down, look closer, and perhaps find a new sense of time.
