GilsfjordurArts artist residency opens in May as the snow recedes. Martin Cox, Artist Director arrives ahead of the first artists to install wifi in the Brekka and prepare for the season. We have a full season of artists for 6 residencies. The lonely farm house in Gilsfjörður, proves to be very popular. We become members of resartis.org and hold a fundraiser in Echo Park for household improvements and future expansion. Martin Cox, returns to Iceland to increase local community ties and offer the local school a workshop. The name Latitude for Art is chosen for the non-profit to formalize and over see the needs of the project in Iceland. Connections are made for the artists to explore with the school in Reykholar, the Sheep museum in Strandir and the Museum of Sorcery and Witchcraft. In October Latitude For Art gains it’s 501 3 c status as a California based non-profit.
