Dear Loop Lab Community,
I hope this message finds you all in good spirits and thriving in your creative endeavors. It brings me great joy to share some exciting updates and initiatives that have taken place at The Loop Lab.
Abraham Lopez, alum of our MAA, talks about his experience at the Multicultural Arts Center.
On May 16th, we had the privilege of hosting our Spring Appreciation Breakfast, a heartfelt gathering dedicated to expressing our gratitude towards our valued funders and supporters. The event, held at the Multicultural Arts Center in Cambridge, was a two-hour celebration filled with warm conversations and a deeper understanding of the incredible work happening within our internship sites. We were especially thrilled to showcase the remarkable achievements of our apprentice, Abraham Lopez, highlighting his impactful contributions made thus far during his internship.

In addition to this, I am delighted to announce the opening of our third location in Downtown Crossing at 45 Temple Place, Boston. This expansion allows us to serve our Boston population even more conveniently, reinforcing our commitment to fostering creativity and empowerment within our community. To commemorate this milestone, we are planning an open house and ground breaking ceremony in the upcoming fall. Stay tuned for more details as we prepare to share this momentous occasion with all of you!
Moreover, I am thrilled to introduce the Boston Media Arts Empowerment Award, a remarkable award initiated by Loop Lab Studio in collaboration with the Mayor's Office of Arts & Culture, City of Boston. This award has been created with the vision of providing media services to support the artistic growth and exposure of emerging artists from underestimated backgrounds in the City of Boston. We eagerly anticipate receiving submissions from the vibrant Boston arts community and assisting these talented individuals in bringing their artistic visions to life. You can read more about it in the Studio update.
