The Dallas Latino Film Festival, hosted by the Latino Cultural Center in Dallas, Texas, celebrates the creativity, diversity, and storytelling power of Latino filmmakers and voices from across the globe. Located in the heart of the Dallas Arts District, the Latino Cultural Center has served the community for over 23 years as a space dedicated to arts, culture, and creative exchange.
This inaugural festival aims to showcase compelling short films that highlight the experiences, perspectives, and artistic innovation of Latino creators. By bringing together emerging filmmakers, established industry professionals, and film enthusiasts, the festival seeks to foster community, conversation, and collaboration within the growing Texas film industry.
Selected films will be screened at the Latino Cultural Center as part of a curated program featuring filmmaker Q&A sessions, panel discussions with industry professionals, and networking opportunities for creatives and audiences alike.
As the film industry continues to expand throughout Texas and the Dallas–Fort Worth metroplex, the Dallas Latino Film Festival hopes to serve as a platform where new voices are discovered, stories are celebrated, and filmmakers can connect with the broader creative community.
We welcome submissions from filmmakers of all backgrounds whose work explores themes of culture, identity, community, and storytelling. Follow the link for filmfreeway submission and guide.
“Well, Well, Well” is a group exhibition examining the contradictions surrounding health, wellness and the systems designed to sustain us. Inspired by the 2015 issue of Harvard Design Magazine, the exhibition brings together artists to consider the body as something adaptive and deeply entangled within social, political and economic structures.
While anatomical diagrams and wellness culture often present the body as orderly and optimized, lived experiences carry a far more complex reality. Bodies leak, fail, recover and persist within systems that both support and constrain them. Taking its title from a phrase that signals surprise, irony or suspicion, “Well, Well, Well” positions wellness as an unstable terrain shaped by things like power, infrastructure and perception.
The exhibition will be developed through an open call model, inviting artists to respond to both the conceptual framework and the spatial conditions of the Cedar Union’s Boedeker building. This exhibition will be mounted in the “pink room,” whose flesh-like tiles and textured ceilings resonate with the exhibition’s focus on the body and its constructed environments.
Selected works will be chosen based on conceptual alignment and their capacity to generate conversation within the space.
Applications are open now through August 15.
For artists and creative entrepreneurs ready to get funded, get visible, and get paid for the work you were already going to make.
Hosted by Myca Raquel, a curator, filmmaker, and creative strategist whose work centers Black artistry, cultural memory, and the business of building a sustainable creative life.
She's spent years inside the rooms most artists are told to wait outside of. Writing the grants, building the brand, negotiating the rate. This workshop is her pulling back the curtain so you don't have to figure it out alone.
Grants, Growth & Getting Paid is a virtual workshop that covers how to write grant proposals that actually win, how to build a brand that attracts funders and clients, and how to map income streams beyond one-off gigs. Registration comes with a complimentary 20-minute one-on-one consult.
One seat is twenty-seven dollars.
Includes the live workshop, Q&A, project feedback, the full recording, the workbook, and a complimentary 20-minute 1:1 consultation about growing your brand.

Visit our FAQsI started sewing while I was pregnant with my second child as a way to cultivate a skill I could use to make items for my kids. At first it was simple, using mostly squares and rectangles and cotton fabric. Then I moved toward sewing bags for more challenging projects. And when I learned about digital artists and became friends with them, it was a whole new world. This crossover of artistry allowed me to create something even more unique. It went from being a different way to provide to something that has become my obsession.

Easyside is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization founded in the spring of 2022 by artists Adrianna Touch, Fernando Alvarez, & Corrie Thompson, along with musician & entrepreneur John Paul Thompson.
