- Impact
Our activities focus on creating impacts in 3 main pillars:
- Impact on local community: introduce NFT & blockchain to Vietnamese Artists & help them explore the blockchain world in a safe way. For Q2: We expand our activities into 3 independent hubs in 3 major cities: Ha Noi, Da Nang - Hoi An, Ho Chi Minh, we expect each hub will be backed by 5 core members & an existing studio.
- Ecosystem impact: Onboarding members onchain & encourage using NEAR tech. We want to create an active hub where creators continue to create using the technology based on their love with art, regardless there is active bounty or not. (Onboard true artists)
- Broader impact outside the ecosystem: We continue to promote NEAR & Creatives DAO through our connection with our Web2 partners. Additionally, we are also seeking for resources beyond NEAR to do crowdfunding & create more opportunities for artists besides what are proposed in this proposal. Regardless where the resource come from, we’ll continue to use NEAR tech & promote Creatives DAO throughout our activities.
- Roadmap
VN Artists DAO Roadmap1920×1080 164 KB
This is the long-term roadmap where VAD aims to be self-sustainable at the end of 2024. To leverage this, we have already established relationships with traditional orgs & companies to support a (limited part) scheme of our activities. See our NEARest workshop in collaboration with Có Đủ Cả bookstore system here: VAD 2023 - Events (vnartistsdao.org)
II. PROPOSAL
Project 1
Description: | VN Artists DAO’s self onboarding booth |
---|---|
Expected outcome: | - Set up 3 booths in studio/bookstores for introduction and self-onboarding. North Vietnam (Hanoi): 1, Middle (Da Nang/Hoi An TBD) 1, South Vietnam (Ho Chi Minh): 1 |
-
Each booth contains a VAD introduction, Onboarding instruction & leaflet for interested people to onboard themselves.
-
Sustainable onboarding, connected with real activities & benefits in real life.
-
Why booth?: 1 time cost for sustainable onboarding. We leverage our partnerships with local bookstores & workshop studios to incorporate the booth with our activities (E.g: onboard themselves to get 10% of voucher in bookstore, onboard themselves to register for free workshop hosted by VAD and our partners).
-
Why 3 booths? We start with a small number and expand gradually when our number of partners increase.|
|Activities & timelines:|- 15 - 29 August: Hubs members prepare ideas, concept

1 - 30 September: Confirm venue, Leaflet design, customer journey design & materials.

- 300$ - Leaflet designs (expected triple-fold leaflet, 2 sides & 6 info pages - $50 each): - To be done as a competitions/bounties between hubs
- 150$ (100N): ~ 1000 linkdrops x 0.1N to run in 1 year or until run out.
- 500$/booth: Hard material for booth setup (x3 booths) = 1500$ (Concept & setup fee should be done voluntarily by hub members)
- 300$ Printing: 300 packs include: stickers (60$), Leaflet (0.8*300=$240)
- There should be no renting time or fee - we only set up onboarding booths under the coverage of our partners in their venue.

Council Reward: $1000 split for 5 councils (200 each): (3 current councils and 2 councils will be elected this month, who will lead the activities with current councils instructions)
