Company Description
The Avalanche Foundation Launches Avaissance, a Trailblazing NFT Initiative Featuring Artist Residencies for 50+ Digital Creators
The unique program aims to spur Avalanche NFT growth through specialized mentorship, financial support, and DAO curation of Avalanche art.
The Avalanche Foundation has launched Avaissance, an initiative to support on-the-rise digital artists and drive Avalanche NFT ecosystem growth. Avaissance has two signature components: an Artist in Residence program (AIR) for 50+ artists, and the Mona Lisa Initiative (MLI), which is a digital art curation collaboration that will jump-start the next generation of Avalanche art.
Avaissance intends to bring a Renaissance to Avalanche NFTs, sparking artists and spurring the ecosystem’s momentum. Artists can already benefit enormously from Avalanche’s speed, reliability, and low fees, all of which make creating and collecting NFTs frictionless. Avaissance aims to help take Avalanche NFTs to yet another level.
Art on Avalanche is dedicated to growing and showcasing the vibrant art and culture in web3! We are committed to highlighting the diverse and innovative works being done in the ecosystem.
