Distant Community2021
Distant is a vibrant, vulnerable digital community that inspires easy-going exchange. Composed of a diverse set of makers, artists, and creatives—industry, years of experience, POV, and career ambitions considered—it’s a space where people can learn from others and learn with others. Find new potential collaborators. Develop friends to lean on. And all possible while we can’t connect IRL, now and whenever that remains true in the future.
