Open call: tend to
How do we stay present when the uncertainties of the future approach? Art provides a world building capability for escapism and finding care for oneself and others. Latitude’s open call seeks artworks that envelop a viewer through color, form, subject-matter, and community. These works can provide a foundation despite not knowing what comes next. 6-8 artists will be selected and the work will be exhibited at BUDDY in March of 2025.
To apply, fill out the Google form to the left. Deadline to apply is January 17, 2025 at 12pm CST.

Mask & Lab Policies
Latitude strives to make our community lab a safe and courageous place for all users. Currently, we do not require masks for picking up or dropping off service orders and for consultations. If you would like a staff member to wear a mask when you are in the lab, please ask! When making a DIY appointment our form offers the ability to ask for lab users to wear a mask during that time slot. If you select yes then all lab users, staff, and volunteers will wear a mask. If they do not have one, a mask will be provided!
