About Tattianna Howard

Tattianna Howard started coming to AnySquared’s studio day in 2015. She has not only been a participant, but also and organizer in many AnySquared projects since then, while also creating, collaborating, and working on other groups and activities. Tatti is a key member on AnySquared’s planning committee which organized 2019’s GallerySquared Exhibit and our fun and exciting Feb 2020 ART SWAP & artist’s community event.

She helped conceptualize and create the amazing LIP 2020 Arts Festival & Exhibition in which she was was co-lead organizer and curator on that project. LIP (Life-In-Progress) featured nearly 100 artists who answered our question of “What is Progress?” through  all forms of art. Unfortunately, most of our incredible festival events after the March 7th opening including performances, the Art-Off, music, video, and workshops were postponed due to covid.

Tattianna’s drive and imagination have made her an essential part of AnySquared. We are lucky!

LIP = Life in Progress  |  AnySquared Projects’ LIP20/20 Exhibit & Arts Festival showcases work that expresses definitions and/or critiques of progress that provokes, challenges, or illustrates. Through all media, artists represent, examine, analyze, or dissect what is actual progress, what some consider progress, and what is not. LIP 20/20 seeks to answer and explore this concept with our work, our art, in our communities, and as human beings, both in the city and the world.  #LIP2020
