Hi, I’m Dani Lantier (pronounced LON-tee-yay!), the human behind Cherry Community Events, a tiny operation with big nonprofit energy. I currently run everything from idea sketches to event logistics to post-show debrief snacks.

Cherry’s mission? Make arts experiences accessible, joyful, and wildly welcoming.

Cherry Community Events is a solo-led initiative focused on accessible arts programming, community-building, and fair engagement with local artists, making arts events that feel human. I design and run events that are small in scale, high in care, and intentionally structured.

I believe in transparency, thoughtful planning, and creative programming that responds to community needs. As Cherry expands, so will the team, the partnerships, and the possibilities.
