Food, community and education were celebrated by The Latino Academy of Workforce Development as they opened doors to the Madison community to tour their new space Wednesday evening. The nonprofit settled in a new office and training space just off the Beltline at 2909 Landmark Place in the Metastar Building.
The new space was sought after as the Latino Academy continued to serve those in need of its educational services than its former spaces could accommodate. The new space has six offices, a conference room and three large training rooms. Visitors for the grand unveiling were given an excited tour of the space where staff like Jorge Aguilar, 28, Madison, gleefully speculated on all the new possibilities for the nonprofit’s new home.
“We have the TV so we can stream the World Cup later,” Aguilar said with a laugh while he showed visitors around the lounge area of the office.
