Launch Party: Latela Curatorial's Second Annual Women in the Arts

Join The Silva and Latela Curatorial on October 14th, 2021 to celebrate Women in the Arts at the brand-new Silva Gallery in Adams Morgan!

Enjoy drinks, conversations with artists, hors d’oeuvres, live music, and an intimate look at “Invocations,” featuring work by Kate Fitzpatrick, Rose Jaffe, Jackie Milad, Kate Sable, Lee Nowell-Wilson, and Nastassja Swift.

Kicking off Latela Curatorial’s second annual Women in the Arts exhibition series and campaign to elevate women artists’ sales in a market where they make up only 2%, this reception offers a private, after-hours look at the first of six Women in the Arts satellite exhibitions, “Invocations.”

About Latela Curatorial:

Latela Curatorial is a full service art advisory studio based in Washington DC that specializes in the weaving together of conceptual art projects and curatorial services for art collections. Through intuitive arts leadership, LC’s core mission is to continuously question how “support” is defined in the artworld and advocate on behalf of the artist and arts workers. LC’s attitude is to nurture with a matriarchal approach: creating generative (rather than solely transactional) opportunities for artists, collectors and communities alike.

Latela Curatorial’s holistic approach includes organic placemaking, large-scale art procurement, exhibition curation, collections management and community workshops. LC is particularly passionate about raising the bar for support of the arts ecosystem in the nation’s capital. LC excels in working with art collectors as well as designers/architects/developers in an ever-gentrifying area and underrepresented art market to augment the area’s artistic currents and talents. In addition to client work and rotating exhibitions, LC helms two special projects: GLB Memorial Fund for the Arts and the annual Women in the Arts Initiative.
