**Greetings Artists and Creators!**

Dandelions and Honeybees continues our journey and mission to support pollinators by educating people on sustainable consumer and gardening practices and the perils of harmful pesticides and herbicides. We invite our next cohort of artists to submit their work.

**Theme:**  **We invite artists to create dynamic NFTs that either feature pollinators or highlight the plight of the Earth’s pollinators.**

We are looking for GIFs with movement and would love to see sacred geometry and cosmic themes incorporated in the art. Pollinators are not necessarily a “sexy” topic, so we are looking for art that will draw people in.

This bounty will close June 13, and we will select the winners by June 17. Selected works will be minted on our [dandelions store](https://www.mintbase.io/store/dandelions.mintbase1.near?tab=nfts&page=0) on Mintbase and featured in our 3XR Gallery, 3XR Create Space and our Pollen Nation metaverse on Nearhub, which are in the process of being developed or updated. We would also like to feature select NFTs on our instagram page [@dandelionsandhoneybeesdao](https://www.instagram.com/dandelionsandhoneybeesdao/) and twitter [@dhoneybees](https://twitter.com/dhoneybees).

**To understand the importance of rescuing the Earth’s pollinator populations, please feel free to browse through some of these resources:**
