Event Report

Last Saturday, Aug. 7th, we hosted our first Creatives Community Forum event on Airmeet and welcomed a humble audience to what will be the first of quarterly creative community events!

  1. Attendance breakdown:

    • 10-15 people for first hour – around 5 of which were general community members, was some reluctance and awkwardness to join the tables to really mingle
    • 12-16 people for the second hour

  2. Successes

    • Feedback from Creative Guild Leaders was that the mingling before the event and the presentations were interesting and useful to hear.
    • Enthusiasm from Creative Guild Leaders and willingness to participate either in the presentations or with a presence at the tables to speak to and mingle with one another and/or new or existing community members was gratifying.
    • Was an excellent way to get the Creatives DAO Twitter account up and running.

  3. Learnings

    • Not everyone is comfortable - especially if they’re new to the community - with just diving into joining a table on Airmeet with no context. Next time should label the introductory table more clearly so folks can drop in to speak to Creatives DAO council first to figure out how to navigate the tables.
    • A few of the attendees were referrals from Creative Community leaders and did not have much knowledge or context about NEAR - more introductory materials seem to be needed.
    • Update presentations > mingling at tables, especially since the update presentations ended up going 30 mins over!
    • Need to have promotional materials with the Airmeet link for registration clearly marked, clickable, and shortened!

  4. Accounting of Spending

    • As a The Creatives DAO branded visuals listed above designed by @bianca
      = 35 NEAR [out of CreativesDAO reserves]

    • As a thank-you to our Creative Guild Leaders who were not only present at the tables for one hour before the event, but stuck around to deliver ~10-minute update presentations, we tipped:

      2.19 N x 1 – to leaders present at the table
      5.19 N x 7 – to leaders who were present at the tables AND delivered an update presentation
      = 38.52 N [out of Rebecca’s council member tipBot budget]

      Total amount = 73.52 N


What’s next for the Creatives DAO?

  • We didn’t have a chance to present what the Creatives DAO is up to and how the creative community can be involved during the event (fair, time was better spent actually hearing from the community instead!) @chloe recorded the presentation instead so check it out here.
    • CALL TO ACTION for the Creative Community contained within this post
